Just came back from our holidays in Miami. We went to visit the Jungle Island Zoo near the port of Miami one time and I noticed some palms near the pond with flamingos that looked like coconuts. I didn't see any tag so I was wondering if anybody knows the I.D. of these palms.

Thanks in advance.

It's a small world, about a year ago I took photos of these very same palms at Jungle Island with the intention of getting an ID on this forum, I ended up getting the ID before I posted though.
