Excellent images Trey! It was a fun morning of birding outside Everglades National Park. Highlights for me:

White-tailed Kite - in the field to the east of Lucky Hammock; even crossed the road for a great photo opportunity

Scissor-tailed Flycatcher - perched on the wires and then the small trees near the canal that is just outside the park entrance

Vermilion Flycatcher - beautiful male; wow!

Raptors - lots of Northern Harriers, Broad-winged Hawks, Peregrine Falcons, and American Kestrel flying around

Wintering birds like Gray Catbird and Palm Warbler were back in force. Also seen were Eastern Phoebe, House Wren, Indigo Bunting, and Baltimore Oriole.
