Spent the morning in Everglades National Park with my goal for the day was the see a Shiny Cowbird that's been hanging out at the visitor center at Flamingo. Made a few stops along the 42 miles of road before reaching Flamingo. Most weren't very active, except for the biting flies. But Long Pine Campgrounds was worth the stop. Had calling
Bobwhites, White-eyed Vireos, Northern Cardinals, Great Crested Flycatchers, Pine Warblers and Blue-Gray Gnatcatchers. Lots of
American Crows and Swallow-tailed Kites seen roadside.

Reaching Flamingo, at the end of the road, a
Shiny Cowbird was found actively feeding with a flock of Brown-headed Cowbirds.
