Sunset Birding at Prospect Park

PLEASE NOTE: You must register for this field trip (limit: 10 people) and complete the liability form when you register. Walk-up or impromptu participants will not be allowed. Other requirements are described below.

Join us on a late afternoon/early evening bird outing at Prospect Park, where we will explore a variety of bird habitats in search of resident and migrant birds. All trails are flat and accessible. We will spend time on paved or hard-packed gravel trails, with a short boardwalk section in the wetlands portion of Prospect Park.

Plan to dress for the weather and bring binoculars. Gigi Zarzuela, field trip leader, will plan to bring my scope and an extra set of binoculars. Beginners are encouraged to join and all levels are welcome!

Note: Please plan to meet at the Youngfield entrance (the 44th Ave entrance is temporarily closed due to construction).
