Hi Eloso and other readers: After a dull winter and spring in Flamingo we were looking forward to birding here following the big weather event, and we finally had some migrants in and around a fruiting strangler fig in front of the visitor center: Magnolia Warbler Red-eyed Vireo Red-breasted Grosbeak Orchard Oriole Cape May Warbler Etc. Strong SW winds (preceding the N winds) caused flooding in the walk-in area of the campground, drawing in lots of shorebirds, including four white-rumped sandpipers. Bob
