: I saw the Red-legged Honeycreeper this morning at about 7:30AM at Royal Palm Hammock, Everglades National Park. I first heard, then saw it a few yards up the grass path (known as the Ingraham Highway) that bisects the Gumbo Limbo Trail. It then flew to the Ficus tree at the exit to the Gumbo Limbo Trail, where it stayed for only a minute or two before flying back into the hammock. : Other birds seen today in the Royal Palm Hammock area: : Double-crested Cormorant : Anhinga : American Bittern (2, maybe 3) : Great Blue Heron : Great Egret : Little Blue heron : Tricolored Heron : Green Heron : Yellow-crowned Night Heron : White Ibis : Wood Stork : Black Vulture : Turkey Vulture : Osprey : Bald Eagle (immature) : Red-shouldered Hawk : Purple Gallinule : Red-bellied Woodpecker : Piliated Woodpecker : Great Crested Flycatcher : White-eyed Vireo : Blue Jay : American Crow : Tree Swallow : Carolina Wren : Gray Catbird : Northern Mockingbird : Northern Parula : Palm Warbler : Black-and-white Warbler : Common Yellowthroat : Northern Cardinal : Red-winged Blackbird : Eastern Meadowlark : Boat-tailed Grackle : Before arriving in the Park, I had a Scissor-tailed Flycatcher, and 5 Western Kingbirds on SW 209 Avenue, just north of CR 9336. After leaving the park this afternoon, I had the Vermilion Flycatcher at its usual perch at the South Dade Greenway. :
