I decided to avoid the rain in North Dade and Broward and headed to the Annex
and ENP. The annex was very birdy, with a wide variety of species. You had your
waders, your raptors, your warblers, your owl and your flycatcher. Robin
mentioned that she had seen two Barred Owls at the Annex. I heard them but
didn't see them until a gentleman from Chicago (Bill?) showed up. He found them
up in one of the big trees on the other side of the canal.
At the Annex I saw:
GB Heron
Green Heron
Purple Gallinule
Northern Harrier
Red Shouldered Hawk
Kestrel
Swainson's Hawk
Painted Buntings
Red-wing Black Birds
Starlings
Prairie
Palm Warbler
Black & White Warbler
Parula
Common Yellow Throat
Tennessee Warbler
Heard a White-eyed Vireo
Barred Owl
I decided to drive down to Flamingo just to see the damage and how things are
being restored. I made quick stops at just about every major stop. I didn't see
much out of the ordinary and the further south I went the less there was to see.
Here are photos from the day.

It started raining about 1:30 pm about half way home. My plan worked out
well.
