1400 Hrs.  Ybor City is a small suburb of Tampa and we’re planning to meet Ms Alicia Biggers and her friends for a pub-crawl this evening.  We’re staying at the Hampton Inn in downtown Ybor, and the view from our room is a majestic view of alleys and abandon buildings approximately 1 mile from the Tampa harbor.  From our room I spotted the following:  Loggerhead Shrike, Eurasian Collared Dove, Laughing Gulls, and Herring Gulls.
