Warbler Song Workshop

with Tom Stephenson

The highlight of the spring migration no doubt are the warblers, small active colorful songbirds, known for their incredibly enchanting songs. With so many songs to remember, particularly with their musical variations, warblers present a challenging task for birders. Join us for a warbler song workshop presented by one of the best warbler song experts in the NYC area, Tom Stephenson.

Note: as a follow-up, Tom will be leading the Prospect Park walk the Saturday after the workshop. Check the field trips page for more information.
