2. See a bird. If you're interested in birding, or ready to give it a try, head to Prospect Park for a Bird Watching Tour with “The Urban Birder.” (See some of the birds you might spot in the park in the photo gallery.) All skill levels welcome. The tour will begin at Grand Army Plaza and end at the Audubon Center where you can warm up with hot chocolate and coffee. Binoculars will be provided. $5 suggested donation. 9 a.m.
