Rochester Birding Association

Highland Park - A joint trip with the Highland Park Conservancy
2026-04-22 08:00 - 12:00 (America/New_York) | Highland Park, Reservoir Avenue, Rochester, NY, 14620, United States
We’ll be looking for spring migrants while enjoying lovely flora. This walk would be gorgeous even without the birds, but it does have birds in abundance! Find out where people have spotted the rarities that pop up in this urban treasure. Dress for the weather. We will be mostly walking on paved walkways with gentle hills; walking in grass, a possibility. No restrooms available.
Meet at 8:00 a.m. on Reservoir Avenue in front of the Conservatory building.
Leader: Jeanne Verhulst 585-362-0803 and co-leader Amy Kahn 585-310-2330
