Orlando backyard birds: Colorful collection of visitors

Roger Simmons, February 4, 2025February 4, 2025

I go birding across Central Florida a lot, but sometimes the birds come to me. My Orlando backyard seems to be a popular spot for birds, especially this time of year.

I’ve been getting visits from different warblers, titmouses (or is it titmice?) as well our year-round residents, the Northern Cardinals. Overall, they create quite a colorful collection – including the Black-and-white Warbler.
