Where is the Flamingo Road ESL site in Broward County (Davie area)? Is it near the marsh area on Sheridan Street by the Southwest Regional Library, with the boardwalk?
I was on the boardwalk Saturday, 12/9, with my husband, we saw
Turkey and Black Vultures
White Ibis
a Glossy Ibis
many American Coots
Common Moorhen
Anhinga
Tri-Colored Heron
Pied-billed Grebe
Red-winged Blackbird
Motled Duck
Purple Swamp Hen (3, maybe 4)
Northern Harrier (female)
Belted Kingfisher
Boat-tailed Grackle (female)
Green-backed Heron
Blue-winged Teal
Little Blue Heron
Double Crested Cormorant
Snowy Egret
My first time posting here, sorry if I've included too many common species. I could spend ages looking at them all. :-)
For anyone going there, beware of the very large wasp nest (full of very large wasps) on the left fork of the boardwalk, on the outside, facing Sheridan. If you lean on the rail too close to the nest, the wasps take exception.
