Parrot field trip ?

For years, I've wanted to do the parrot field trip in the Miami area. I don't see any trips scheduled right now, because of the c.v. I assume. Any info on when such a parrot trip will happen? Is it possible to do something with a few other vaccinated birders? Thanks.

We're hoping we can resume field trips beginning in the fall. Our annual exotics tour is very popular, so we definitely want to include that tour again in our schedule.

I'd love to do that field trip when it's offered again. Before then, if some kind soul would care to host a dilapidated but eager birder to see all those parrots/parakeets, please contact me.

I am a birder from Oklahoma. My wife and i will be coming to FL in early May. We are looking for someone who could guide us around the Miami area for the local exotics and any FL specialty birds that are about. I have birded FL twice in 1997 and 2006 so i have all the specialty birds but need a few things like Antillean Nighthawk, Gray-headed Swamp Hen, and a few of the exotic parrots. My wife needs all the FL birds as she has never been to FL. Please email me if you can assist or know someone who we might be able to hire for a day or so. Thanks.
