Central Park

Some of the Finest Birding Manhattan has to offer!

If you're planning to go bird watching in Manhattan, what better place to go than the borough's largest and most famous park?  Within Central Park, you'll find approximately 230 species of birds throughout the year.  Some of the birds live in the park all year long while others pop by for a visit several times a year.   

 

If possible, stop by during the early morning or late afternoon, when the birds are most active.  The best times of year to visit would be late spring or summer; since you'll get to witness the birds building their nests, laying eggs, and raising their young.  In other words, photo opportunities will be aplenty!
