Join us for the last walk of the season! We will be back next Spring.
Are you curious about bird watching, but don’t know the first thing about how to do it? Or have you ever been on a birding field trip and said to yourself “this stuff is for the birds,” meaning I’m not seeing what everybody else is seeing! Or maybe you’re thinking “I can’t see anything through these binoculars,” etc.
Well, now you can join Tom Damiani on “small group” field trips with a focus on effectively using binoculars, finding birds using them, and finding the best habitats for birds.
These outings will be held on the first Wednesday of each month, at Wolf Preserve from 8 - 10am.

For over 40 years, the Robert Moses hawk watch has recorded thousands of migrating raptors that pass through long island on their way south. There is a dedicated viewing platform where volunteers count birds as they fly overhead. October is the peak time for this migration and ospreys, red-tailed hawks, all three accipiters, and the three falcons may be seen. Also, bald eagles are becoming more common.

Bring the family as we listen and look for owls at Inlet Pond County Park. Tom Damiani will present a short PowerPoint program focusing on the owls that we might find around the East End. We will then strike out into the field to call for owls and hopefully get some to call back and maybe even see a few! Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and bring a flashlight to use only when necessary.
Tickets are required, please purchase tickets here.
Tickets are $10 per person or $15 for a couple/family
