Whether you’re new to birding or looking to build your skills, this introductory outing is a great way to explore Prospect Park and learn about the birds that visit throughout the year. Join a member of the Brooklyn Bird Club to learn birding basics and search for the dozens of species found in the park across all seasons. All ages and experience levels are welcome. No registration is required. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult. What to Bring: Binoculars if you have them, comfortable walking shoes, water, and weather-appropriate clothing. A limited number of binoculars will be available to borrow. Please Note : Pets are not permitted on this outing. Depending on attendance, participants may be divided into smaller groups. Outings are held rain or shine unless severe weather makes conditions unsafe. Route Description: This outing moves at a relaxed pace with frequent stops to observe birds. Routes may vary from week to week depending on bird activity and park conditions. Participants can expect paved paths, dirt trails, grassy areas, slight inclines and occasional steps. The group will cover approximately 1.5–2 miles. Learn more on the Brooklyn Bird Club website.
