Was at Indian Hammocks at around noon. Had eight warbler species:
N. Parula
BT Blue (male and female)
Yellow-throated
Prairie
Black-and-white
A. Redstart (f)
C. Yellowthroat (male)
Ovenbird
Other birds seen included Red-eyed Vireo, BG Gnatcatcher and Brown Thrasher
Late afternoon swung by Cutler Wetlands and had the usual birds. The highlight was a Great Egret catching a Florida Water Snake, eventually swallowing it. The snake tried to bite in defense when it was caught by the tail end but once the egret maneuvered its prey so it could swallow it head first it was over.
Mottled Duck
Blue-winged Teal
Great Egret
Snowy Egret
Tricolored Heron
Little Blue Heron
White Ibis
Black Vulture
Osprey
C. Gallinule

A Broad-winged Hawk was seen perched in a tree in a neighborhood around the Falls.
