    Newbie Birder FLORIDA question

    Snow Buntings in South Florida...? March, April, and May are transitional with many species coming and going during that time. March is still pretty much 'winter' birding, although most migratory ducks will be pushing out by then (not that we get that many down here). Swallow-tailed Kites...

    Bird watching in March or April in Florida

    Miami offers very good birding in March and April. If you arrive in March, many warbler species will not have departed yet to their breeding grounds. If you arrive in April, you lose some of the warbler diversity but gain a few summer migrants such as Black-whiskered Vireo and Gray Kingbird...

    Red-crowned Parrot is ABA-countable in Southern California. There might be more of them there than in their native Mexico, sadly.

    2016 - World Yearlist Record Attempt

    Not bonus species... he is coming back to Miami on Monday. He just wanted to avoid going through a day without adding new species, but all the species he added on the layover are ones we are highly likely to see again when he comes back shortly.

    2016 - World Yearlist Record Attempt

    No pelagics planned for Florida. His USA trip is fairly short, covering only peninsular Florida (2.5 days), northern Minnesota (1 day), New Mexico, and California. We will do our best!

    2016 - World Yearlist Record Attempt

    Hi all: I am handling the 2.5 days he will have in Florida. He has done a very good job in Mexico, but a lot of his pick-ups there overlap with the USA possibilities. I watched the pool of possibilities for Florida shrink pretty rapidly at some of his Mexican sites.

    What species to learn for trip to Southampton Florida

    Make sure to brush up on fall warblers! The first week of November is still a good time to see a variety of warbler species in South Florida (especially the suburban parks in Miami and Everglades NP). Common warbler species include Northern Parula, Prairie Warbler, Palm Warbler, Pine Warbler...

    Peaceful Waters -what caused this?

    It's all part of the water management of the site. A lot of shorebirds are currently migrating through the area, and the site was previously too wet with too much deep water. Shorebirds like open mud, and Peaceful Waters was attracting them by the hundreds with the extra low water levels! The...
