Heron's Head Park - 2010
Public Tours of Heron’s Head Park will be held on February 6, and March 6, 2010. Lowell H.S. Interns will conduct tours of this little-known site just past Pier 94, near Hunter’s Point. .
Tours are one hour long. Tours leave at 10am, 10:30am, 11am and last tour leaves at 11:30am. Come by and experience the thrill of observing and learning about the waterfowl, shorebirds and wading birds that call the Park home during the winter. Interns lead tours and are equipped with spotting scopes.
We hope to see many of the 100 birds sighted at Heron's Head Park. The black-necked stilt and the kildeer are two of our favorites.
