Hi Paul,
No, swamphens have not previously been reported as far north as the northwest side of Lake Okeechobee, but I have been expecting them to continue to disperse throughout south Florida.
Were they of the gray-headed subspecies?
I'd appreciate copies of your pix or videograbs; email is fine.
Best regards,
