Join NYC Bird Alliance's Tod Winston for an exploration of all of the chips, tweets, trills, and warbles heard in parks across New York City in Forest Park. This series is designed for those interested in identifying birds by sound, though we won’t pass up any non-singing birds along the way. We’ll discuss the meanings behind different songs and calls in a small group setting, increasing your ability to indentify birds solely by sound. All experience levels are welcome.

$28 for NYC Bird Alliance members, $42 for non-members. Limited to 12 people.

Interested in the other sessions of this series? Register for the following locations: Central Park - North Woods, Central Park - Ramble, Van Cortlandt Park, and Prospect Park. 

Accessibility and Directions:

This outing will follow both paved and unpaved paths and may include some steps and uneven terrain. A public restroom is available right inside the park next to the Sobelsohn Handball Court (the meeting point). The Sobelsohn Handball Court is a 10-minute walk from the Kew Gardens - Union Tpke E/F subway stops and the Kew Gardens LIRR station. For more information and detailed directions to the park, please visit Forest Park Trust's website.
