Many of the sightings posted on e-bird are farther south into Florida than what the range maps show. I think they are kind of rare birds and not often seen. Their call is very distinctive too, some on iNaturalist were identified by sound alone.

I found a YouTube video of the Fox Sparrows little hop and scratch they do. The few times I've seen them they were doing exactly this.


I love the Bohemian Waxwing pics too. I've only seen Cedar Waxwings here...the Bohemians have a little extra flair I think!
