A BIRDING ADVENTURE IN CENTRAL PARK, NEW YORK CITY

I have been asked by the American Museum of Natural History to mention their Fall Bird walks led by experts from the museum for any of my American readers who maybe interested.


WHAT
Fall Bird Walks in Central Park


Observe more than 50 different species of birds—including resident and migrant birds, water birds, song birds, and birds of prey— during this eight-week bird-watching adventure in Central Park. Join naturalists Stephen C. Quinn (Tuesdays and Fridays), Joseph DiCostanzo (Wednesdays and Thursdays, 7 am), and Harold Feinberg (Thursdays, 9 am) on tours through the park, one of the premier places locally to watch birds during spring and fall migrations. Participants will learn how to use field marks, habitat, behavior, and song as aids in identification. Interested birders, from beginners to the advanced, are invited.

WHEN Eight Tuesdays: September 7–October 26, 7–9 am
Eight Wednesdays: September 8–October 27, 7–9 am
Eight Thursdays: September 9–October 28, 7–9 am

WHERE Walks start across from the Museum on the northeast corner of Central Park West and 77th Street.
