Kings County nature lovers
celebrated Earth Day at Prospect
Park on Sunday, where
park rangers lectured kids on
the ABCs of conservation.
The Earth Day event featured
a variety of greenthemed
lectures from nature
loving non-for-profi ts,
which instructed youngsters
on the fi ner points of catchand
release fi shing, before
letting the pint-sized anglers
cast their lines into Prospect
Park Lake.
At least one little lady
seemed to have found her calling
as an angler, resolutely
casting line after line — even
though the fi sh weren’t biting,
according to her mother.
“She didn’t catch anything,
but I’ve never seen such an a
amazing attention span for
her, she sat there with the fi shing
rod for an hour and a half,”
said Deborah Kirschner, a
spokeswoman for Prospect
Park Alliance, who brought
daughter Ava Weinberg, 8, to
the event.
Other outdoor lessons included
a hike through Brooklyn’s
Backyard to have a
gander at the park’s creepycrawly
residents, and a bird
watching tour with an eye
for migratory chicks that use
Prospect Park as a resting
stop on their journey south.
Speaking of birds, wildlife
rescuer Bobby Horvath turned
out to introduce kids to four
fearsome raptors, an eagle
owl, a kestrel, a barn owl, and
a peregrine falcon, the fastest
creature on earth.
The birds were all wild animals,
but also common New
York City residents, who’ve
learned to adapt to the harsh
realities city life, according to
Horvath.
