Hi folks,
So we're taking a not-necessarily-a-birding trip to visit relatives near Melbourne, FL next week. Naturally, I ain't goin' to Florida without at least chasing a few birds.
That said, we're flying into Ft. Lauderdale, and have a day or two to burn. We hope to bag the Limpkin and the Snail Kite. Ebird shows a string of locations all along Hwy 41, but I'm hoping for advice as to a good spot for either or both birds, so we don't just drive up and down the highway and roll the dice. Also, Limpkin shows recently reported at Plantation Preserve, near Lauderdale. Anyone know much about that place?
Also, anyone know where we might catch an Ani, of either bill?
Thanks in advance.
ps- Oh yeah, and we need the Scrub-jay.
