Audubon Ecotourists Harbor Heron Islands TourSaturday, July 30th
7 pm North & South Brother Islands, LI Sound Dinner at the Bridge Cafe in South Street Seaport 5 pm Members Only New York City, the Audubon, and egrets have a common history going back more than a hundred years. At the end of the Nineteenth Century, a New York City resident, George Bird Grinnell, started the first Audubon. He brought together like-minded people who hoped to stop the slaughter of egrets, which were being killed by the hundreds of thousands so that their plumes could be shipped to New York and used to decorate hats. Fortunately, egrets and herons are now prospering in the harbor, and New York Water Taxi's partnership with NYC Audubon will allow you to see them up close with the guidance of professional naturalists. www.nywatertaxi.com Departs from South Street Seaport, Pier 17 Cost: $20; seniors/child. $10 Info: nybirdclub@yahoo.com www.manhattanbirdclub.com
