No, that the Florida ornithological community -- which you proudly exclude yourself from (c.f. your comments to this Board regarding Varied Thrush and Henslow's Sparrow in Collier County) -- knows of.

The next Florida state bird book, which is currently in the outside review stage, will state very clearly that Pete Frezza's photographs from 1 August 2012 constitute the first record of Chimney Swift breeding in the Florida Keys, going back through the entire recorded history of Florida ornithology. In fact, Pete's four photos have already been archived and will be cited in the book backing up the record.
