Upcoming Trips

Below are the final local birding/nature trips for 2025; Saturday, December 27 - Sunday, December 28, 2025:

Green-Wood Cemetery

Birding in Peace
Sunday, December 28, 2025, 7:15am - 8:45am
Description: Experience Green-Wood before our gates open to the public and discover some of the birds that call the Cemetery their winter home. For species that migrate south after breeding, Brooklyn is their Miami during the colder months. Led by birding expert Rob Jett, this winter tour offers the chance to spot waterfowl, nuthatches, woodpeckers, sparrows, finches, and other birds that stick around for the season. By February, you may even catch the first north-bound birds beginning to return.
