This fall, join NYC Bird Alliance (formerly NYC Audubon) and EsplanadeFriends to discover the East River Esplanade and its adjacent green spaces. Expect to see many water birds right off the coast.

The group will meet on the Esplanade at East 96th St. Registration not required but encouraged. No limit. Free.

Accessibility and Directions:

Public transportation stop near the meeting spot, including the M15, M15-SBS, and M106 buses. Restrooms can be found in Thomas Jefferson Park near E 114th Street. To learn more about the East River Esplanade, visit EsplanadeFriends' website.
