Rare Cuban pewee sighted at Everglades National Park

A rare Cuban peewee was sighted near the Long Pine Key picnic area in Everglades National Park this week. Photos and recordings of the peewee's distinctive song are  being reviewed by the Florida Ornithological Society to confirm that this tiny member of the flycatcher family is a Cuban peewee.  If so, it is the first confirmed sighting of this bird in the Park and the third in the country.

Read about it and see the picture taken by Larry Manfredi in the Naples Daily News and the Miami Herald.
