Bob de Candido does tours for bird watchers of Central Park:

and a trip to Jamaica wildlife refuge, near JFK but reachable by public transport, is usually rewarding.

Have a good trip,

Hi Gaz,
I will be there in August and am hoping to do Central park and Jamaica Bay, will let you know how I get on. Two Derby chaps in New York, small world!

Cheers
Nick

The missus and i have two days in late September in New York city at the end of of a "New England in the Fall' tour so I'll also watch with interest to see how you all get on and thanks for the heads up re. Birding Bobs site which seems ideal! A three hour guided tours for less than £3 - how cheap is that!
