SUMMARY:Jamaica Bay Guided Walk: Winter Birds
DESCRIPTION:Jamaica Bay is home to many bird species during the winter months; spend some time observing them on this guided walk.\n\n\n\nJoin us and Elijah Shiffer for a guided walk at Jamaica Bay\, taking some time to observe the birds found there during winter. \nBirding at Jamaica Bay is exciting in all seasons! In winter\, the focus is on waterfowl. Many male ducks are already in fresh breeding plumage in the winter and engaging in characterful courtship displays. All the widespread species of dabbling ducks are possible on the east and west ponds; on one or the other we may also find a flock of Snow Geese. On the bay side there’s sure to be diving ducks as well as cormorants\, loons\, and grebes. Other birds we’ll be looking for include resident Great Blue Herons and Boat-tailed Grackles\, and the few shorebirds that winter here such as Dunlins and Sanderlings. \n\nSign up here.  \n\nBuy Tickets on Eventbrite\nRegister Here \n \n[wbcr_js_snippet id=”51614″]

SUMMARY:Repair Café: Electronics and Small Appliances
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a community Repair Café\, where neighbors come together to fix\, learn\, and connect. Whether you have a small appliance or electronic item in need of repair\, or you just want to hang out\, observe\, and learn how things work\, everyone is welcome. Volunteer repairers will work on items on a best-effort basis\, sharing skills and troubleshooting together—repairs are not guaranteed\, but the process is collaborative and educational. \nThis general registration helps us plan for attendance; participants who would like to bring an item for repair will receive a separate follow-up form to share details about their item in advance. Come for the repairs\, stay for the community and curiosity. \nThis workshop is part of our Reuse and Re-Imagine Series – A new series of workshops designed to empower our community with new skills while keeping waste out of landfills. \nFunding provided by the Environmental Protection Fund as administered by NYS Department of Environmental Conservation. \nSign Up \n\n\n[wbcr_js_snippet id=”51623″]
