The Eastern bluebird is now being released in the ENP in the area around the Research Center. We would expect that the indigenous population should grow in short order. Late migratory birds might also account for your sighting. I have seen bluebirds on numerous occasions and even photographed them at the entrance fee station in January of 2003. Hurricane Andrew left a lot of standing dead trees so the woodpeckers and bluebirds have things a bit easier now looking for a home.
