Spot the wonderful diversity of birds that visit the park during migratory season with guided tours by NYC Audubon. Located in the heart of Midtown, our park is a hotspot for avian visitors and birders alike. Past sightings include warblers, tanagers, vireos, thrushes, and even a Chuck-will’s-widow!
Tours are Tuesdays at 8am and Thursdays + Fridays at 5pm during migration season. Meet at Heiskell Plaza, near the corner of Sixth Avenue and 42nd Street. No pre-registration is required.
