Urban Nature Club Goes Birding in Prospect Park



Today the Urban Nature Club grabbed their binoculars and headed to Prospect Park to watch birds at the "secret" bird feeders, generously filled by Brooklyn Bird Club President Peter Dorosh. What a great day! We saw chickadees, downy woodpeckers, white-breasted nuthatches, cardinals, juncos, white-throated sparrows and even a red-winged blackbird. We also spotted many empty birds' nests in the now leafless trees. (Oh yes, winter is a great time to go bird nest hunting!)
