Birding More Than Blogging

Which is a good thing.  I have been to Florida, back home and again in Florida and have seen a lot of new species over the past three weeks.  I did add one bird to the Life List, a Bar-tailed Godwit at Fred Howard Park in Tarpon Springs, and added the Eurasian Wigeon, Hooded Merganser and Cassin's Kingbird to my Florida Life List, which now is up to 218 species.  I saw the La Sagra's Flycatcher for the second time in three years, and the beautiful Painted Bunting at the feeders at Corkscrew Swamp and a second and better look at the Vermillion Flycatcher at the Orlando Wetlands.
