Note to Field Trip Participants:
Always call the trip leader so you will know about the last-minute changes in plans.On all trips bring appropriate clothing, including rain gear, and wear sturdy boots on hikes.Binoculars and bird-identification guides are helpful on the birding trip. In warmer weather bring drinking water. Trips will go rain or shine; after all some of the best birding is in "fowl" weather.
