Birding In Central Park

Saturday May 2

7:30 AM  –  11:00 AM

Join the Maria Mitchell Association, MMA Field Ornithologist Ginger Andrews, and special guest, Ecologist José Ramírez-Garofalo, on Saturday, May 2, for a one-of-a-kind morning of birding in New York City’s iconic Central Park.

The morning begins at dawn, when the park is alive with birdsong. Andrews and Ramírez-Garofalo will share expert tips on spotting and identifying a wide range of species, following the migratory paths of thousands of birds as the day unfolds. Afterward, enjoy a group discussion on the observances of the morning with a lite refreshment at the Central Park Boathouse Café.
