Free: Weird Duck Spotting at Astoria Park with Lily Mastrodimos (1/16)

It's winter and you know what that means. That's right, it's Weird Duck Time! Shovelers, scoters, or mergansers: which duck do you think has the most insane bill? Join us on a stroll by the water to see if we can spot any of these winter visitors.

The group will meet at the Astoria Park Parking Lot (19 19th Street). 

Registration not required but encouraged (it helps us know how many extra binoculars we should bring!). No limit. Free.

Note on Accessibility:

This park contains several paved paths. Restrooms are located between the running track and tennis courts. The Q69 and Q100 buses stop a block away from a park entrance.
