Access to Dagny Johnson Key Largo Hammock Botanical State Park. The park contains the largest remaining fragments of rockland hammock in the continental United States. Once a dominant habitat type in the Florida Keys and southern tip of Florida’s peninsula, this West Indian plant community was originally established largely by migratory birds. Northbound migrant songbirds, having fed on the fruits of trees and shrubs in the Bahamas, Greater Antilles, and Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico, often carry seeds in their digestive tract. Many tropical species are resident here, including the white-crowned pigeon, mangrove cuckoo and black-whiskered vireo. Tropical vagrants such as the thick-billed vireo and La Sagra’s flycatcher are frequently reported in the park.
