I went to the Space Coast Birding and Wildlife Festival in Titusville, Florida. I also appreciated Mississippi Kites not too far from my job, great birds on the coast of Queens , and more wood-warblers. I also spent a bunch of time on the East Pond at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge and, as usual, managed to see some birds on workdays.
