5th Annual Raptorama! Part 1: Jamaica Bay (10/15)

Meet at the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center to learn about the hawks and owls of Jamaica Bay. See some of these amazing raptors during a live demonstration, and go on walks with experts to get a look at hawk species flying south for the winter.

This festival is presented by the American Littoral Society, with NYC Audubon, Jamaica Bay-Rockaway Parks Conservancy, Marine Park Alliance, and Gateway National Recreation Area. The rain date is Sunday, October 16. While this event is free, donations to support this festival would be appreciated.
