Birding with an Indigenous Perspective

Join Bronx-based BIPOC birder Haley Scott from the Feminist Bird Club on a birding walk with an indigenous perspective. Hear about the effects of colonialism on bird populations and how common bird names evolved from the Algonquin language to reflect the language of European settlers. It’s peak fall migration, so expect to spot a wide variety of birds in the garden and skies above Wave Hill during this special walk and talk. A limited number of binoculars, monoculars and walking sticks are available to borrow at the Perkins Visitor Center.

Ages 10 and older welcome with an adult. Tickets required for all participants.
