It's hot in New York City right now, but that doesn't mean you can't find ways to get outdoors and enjoy the summer. One option is a visit to the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge in Queens, which has over 12,000 acres of protected land, fresh and saltwater marshes, and home to one of the largest bird habitats in the northeast. As part of our series highlighting outdoor recreational activities to do in New York, we speak with Terri Carta, executive director for the Jamaica Bay-Rockaway Park Conservancy and Rick Jenkins, a National Park Service ranger for the Gateway National Recreation Area, to learn more about the Wildlife Refuge and its history.
