Walks and Tours

Fall Lunchtime Bird Walks (October)

October 9, 2012 - October 30, 2012

Fall Lunchtime Bird Walks

Please note: the October 30 walk was canceled due to the impact of Hurricane Sandy. The Museum is rescheduling this program; please check back for updates or call 212-496-4234 for an exchange or refund if you purchased a ticket.

As the days turn crisp and the leaves begin to change color, songbirds begin their southward migration, passing through Central Park on the way to winter homes in warmer climes. Join ornithologist Paul Sweet to learn to identify the “confusing fall warblers” and the “little brown jobs” that fill the trees and bushes at this time of year.

Be sure to bring a pair of binoculars and wear comfortable shoes. Please note, this walk is over an hour long with steps, slopes and wood chip paths. Walks start across from the Museum on the northeast corner of Central Park West and 77th Street. Walks are limited to 15 people per series. For more information, call the AMNH Bird Walk Hotline at 212-313-7579.
