Join NYC Bird Alliance's Tod Winston on a hike around the wilds of Calvert Vaux Park, just past low tide, as we look for early fall migrants and lingering breeding birds. Cavert Vaux's combination of mudflats, scrubland and lovely vistas onto Coney and Staten Islands can provide a surprising assortment of birds—from waders to warblers to waterfowl.

Registration required. NYC Bird Alliance Members $30, non-members $45. Limited to 15.
