Pratt) Newsgroups: rec.birds,rec.travel,rec.scuba Subject: Trip Report to Everglades and Florida Keys, Part 7 Keywords: Bird List Message-ID: Date: 28 May 90 18:49:34 GMT Organization: Rutgers Univ., New Brunswick, N.J. Lines: 91 Trip report to the Everglades and Florida Keys ==or-- how to see 165 species in 8 days. This file contains a fairly detailed travel log of a trip that we took this spring to the Everglades, then to Key Largo, then to Big Pine Key. We did lots of both bird- and fish-watching and did our first scuba diving since we were certified (NAUI) last fall. This information should be of interest to birders and fishers (?) alike who are interested in doing the same kind of trip that we did.
