Bird Board

Nutmeg Mannikins

I am visiting my brother here in Palmetto Bay, (Miami) and
while I was birdwatching the feeder I thought I saw a pair of Nutmeg Mannikins at his seed feeder. Is this a possibility at all in this area....I was too busy watching them to get a picture, then the doves flew in and the Mannikins took off. I am a West Coast birder, so I am not familiar what might blow in during migration here....YIKES!

A small population of Nutmeg Mannikins reside in Palmetto Bay.

Many of them in Cutler Bay. They showed up 2 years ago and have been at neighborhood feeders ever since.
