Winter Bird Walk – Cancelled Due To Inclement Weather
January 29, 2022 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Join us for a guided tour to look for and learn about the approximately 50+ species of birds that migrate to the Park during the winter season or live year-round on Randall’s Island!
We invite all levels, from first timers to experienced birders and welcome individuals of all abilities and backgrounds. This program will help participants locate, identify and learn about birds and the New York City environment. It will be an exciting tour as Randall’s Island Park is an oasis where you can learn about and discover something new and different at every visit! Registration required through Eventbrite.
Location: Meet at the base of the 103rd Street Footbridge RI side.
