jerome_smith Posted February 26, 1999 Share Posted February 26, 1999 On an excursion last year with an Audubon group in So. Miami, I lamented about the loss of Castello Hammock Park as a result of hurricane Andrew. The park was the most reliable place I knew of to take headshots of Painted and Indigo Buntings, White Winged Doves and other "feeder" and non-feeder birds. Someone mentioned to me that Bill Sidowski Park (Sp.?) was a reliable alternative. Can someone help me find Sidowski Park and comment on its bird photo ops? Where are the feeders? Has Castello Hammock been rebuilt/reopened? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliff_kolber Posted February 26, 1999 Share Posted February 26, 1999 Hi: Bill Sadowski Park is in the south part of Miami. it's off Old Cutler Road on SW 174 Street. Head west (you can't go east) from Old cutler road and the park is about 1 mile down, on the right. I don't know much about the birding there, but this park was also devastated by Hurricane Andrew. I haven't been to the park in several years. You can call the park, or Audobon. Good luck! Cliff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerome_smith Posted March 2, 1999 Author Share Posted March 2, 1999 Thanks. I found it on Sunday. Actually easier to make right on SW 176 from Old Cutler. Anyway, there were feeders, but after 11/2 hrs. no birds other than a lone Cardinal and 2 Bluejays. Not worth the 1 hr. drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
