10:30 AM-12:30 PM on Sat

$16.00

Walk APEC’s trails with a birding expert and learn to identify the birds you see. New York City is situated on the Atlantic Migratory Flyway, making Alley Pond Park a fantastic place to spot birds of all kinds. Using field guides and binoculars, you’ll be able to distinguish between eye stripes, wing bars, male and female birds, and juvenile and adult birds. You’ll also learn to spot evidence of birds like nests, holes that woodpeckers have drilled, and more. By the end of the day, you might even be able to identify a bird just by its call. Limited to 12 participants.
