Dinosaurs in Action: Green-Wood’s Birds of Prey 

October 3rd , 10:15am 11:45am

Green-Wood is one of the best places in New York City to spot birds of prey—and not just soaring overhead! Here, you can witness raptors going about their daily lives: hunting and feeding, courting and nesting, learning to fly (a wobbly process!), and simply hanging out. 

Drawing on years of observation and photography, urban naturalist Matthew Wills will take you inside the fascinating world of Green-Wood’s raptors. Through a lively, image-filled presentation, you’ll discover the behaviors and lifestyles of these modern-day heirs of the theropod dinosaurs, from daytime hunters like eagles, hawks, and falcons to the mysterious owls that emerge after dark. 

Price: $25 / $20 for members
