Central Park Spring Migration Walk with Ken Chaya, Alan Drogin and Kevin Sisco, 5/13/2025

Registrar: Sarah Dahl
Participants: 54
Weather: Cloudy and low 60s at the start
Bird Species: 53

A cloudy morning greeted an energetic group of 53 birders.  The skies threatened rain that held off, but the day remained cloudy.  Things started slowly but eventually picked up a bit as the morning went on.  It was a lovely spring day to be in the park nonetheless.
