Join the Maria Mitchell Association, Field Ornithologist Ginger Andrews, and the Travel Sommelier team on Saturday, September 20 for a one-of-a-kind morning of birding in New York City’s iconic Central Park.
We’ll start early to catch the birds as they greet the day, with Ginger sharing expert tips on spotting and identifying species. Then, head to the American Museum of Natural History for a quick tour before enjoying brunch at The Restaurant at Gilder, featuring a lively talk with African bird expert James Currie.
