Join Friends of McGolrick Park for an Autumn Tree ID Walk, Nov 15 at 10am.
Learn how to spot the clues hiding in plain sight, from bark texture and branching patterns to buds and silhouettes. You’ll leave knowing your London planes from your redbuds and seeing the park a little differently for the rest of the season. We'll identify 5-7 trees and discuss features, tips, and tricks for tree identification, plus some facts about how trees change with the seasons!
This walk will be led by Deborah Davidson, who holds a B.A. in Biological Anthropology and an M.Sc. in Conservation with an emphasis in primate ecology. Throughout her career, she has worked with the University of Oxford Botanic Garden, the Wildlife Conservation Society, the Arcus Foundation, and City Parks Foundation. She also completed an Urban Forest Fellowship at McGolrick Park.
All ages welcome.
Private support is provided by City Parks Foundation and Partnerships for Parks through the NYC Green Fund.
