Hello all,
    I just got back from birding in south Florida for a week.  My wife and I 
went to Everglades National Park, the Keys, and camped out for a night at the 
Dry Tortugas and had a great time.  I also want to send out a big thanks to 
Rack Cross for the tips on the Anis, although I missed the Western Spindalis in 
Key West.  I observed 103 species.  Some of the notable species were:

American Swallow-tailed Kite (20+)
Woodstork (30+)
Great White Heron (3)
Limpkin (2)
Purple Gallinule (4)
Smooth-billed Ani (3)
Groove-billed Ani (1)
Cave Swallow (50+)
Palm Warbler (100+)
Common Yellowthroat (8)
Black & White Warbler (3)
Swainson's Warbler (1)
White-eyed Vireo (12)
Louisiana Waterthrush (3)
Peregrine Falcon (1) - feasting on Sooty Terns and Brown Noddys on the Dry 
Tortugas
Sooty Tern (100+)
Brown Noddy (100+)
Northern Gannet (2)
Masked Booby (8)
Brown Booby (3)
Magnificent Frigatebird (100+)
Snail Kite (2)
Roseate Spoonbill (6)
Red-Shouldered Hawk (30+)
Common Ground Dove (2)
Bald Eagle (2)
