In the Park will be seen many species of Terns, some of which nest here in sum- mer, others which next in the far North. Also are found the tropical Terns, the Sooty, and the Noody. The Smooth Billed Ani has recent- ly come, and a new Oriole has been observed. There are flocks of | White Ibis, and the uncommon Glossy Ibis. Seen also are the Ro- |seate Spoonbills, some of which have remained in Key West alJ dur- ing the summer and fall, due to the excellent protection given by the Key West community. Cormorants, Pelicans, and An- hings are easily observed, and the | Purple Gallinule, which ordinarily nests in Canada, has nested at An- hinga Trailer for the first time The Everglades Natonal Park has natural food for the Everglades Kite and the Limpkin, who feast upon snails.
