Not all birds fly south for the winter (and some birds’ idea of flying south is to New York!). Join us in search of the birds that winter at Sheldrake, and help us get them holiday-ready. We’ll make pinecone feeders both to leave behind at Sheldrake and to take home for our backyard friends.

Part of the Sheldrake Second Saturday Series of free family programs, made possible by a generous grant from Con Edison.
