Prospect Park Birding Walk
BK Birding Walk: Special Edition - Prospect Park
Usal and McGolrick Bird Club team up for a special field trip to Prospect Park, where we’ll spend a quiet winter morning walking the loop around Prospect Lake, looking for the birds that stay when most people don’t.
This guided walk introduces the basics of birdwatching—how to slow down, where to look, what to listen for—while building the confidence to explore on your own. Along the way, you’ll connect with a welcoming community and encounter species you may have passed a hundred times without ever really seeing.

About
Michael Lombardo of McGolrick Bird Club is a former YouTube product manager whose disillusionment with the online world inspired him to try noticing birds. Besides beautiful species he'd overlooked, Michael discovered that practicing awareness through birding is as powerful as any meditation or yoga practice. 5 years on, his walks and writing bridge the gap between the seemingly odd culture of avid birding and a growing audience of nature-hungry New Yorkers.
