USA (Florida), 8-31 March 2018

We visited Florida, USA from March 8-31, 2018; our first visit to the States (excluding transits).
We landed in Miami, picked up our rental car and drove straight to our AirBnB in Homestead. In the first week we visited
some parks in the Miami/Homestead area, the Keys and (of course) the famous Everglades. From there we drove along the west coast
north (staying mainly around Fort Myers in the second week) all the way to Crystal River. Our last week we stayed in
Ocala National Forest, leaving the country through Orlando International Airport.

Our trip was quite a succes, seeing 157 species (introduced species not included) of birds and a lots of other animals,
among them countless alligators and snakes, but also species like West-Indian Manatee, Northern Raccoons,
Florida Black Bears, Bottlenosed Dolphins and many, many others.
