Upcoming Birding Trips
Field trips will begin again starting in September. Please review the COVID-19 guidelines before attending a field trip. At this time, we are unable to accommodate unvaccinated individuals on our field trips. All participants must sign a liability release before participating and submit it to the field trip leader or to our executive director.
2024 Field Trip Liability Release and Indemnity Agreement
UPDATE: We have rescinded our previous COVID-19 requirements, and will be following the current County guidelines, which can be found here: https://www.snohd.org/538/STATE-LOCAL-Guidance
Open to Everyone
Our field trips are open to anyone and all are welcome. You do not need to be an Audubon member to participate.
Trip Leaders and Field Trip Costs
Our field trips are free to attend. However, our trip leaders are volunteers and receive no compensation. If you carpool with someone, it is common courtesy to compensate the driver for your share of gas and vehicle use. You are also responsible for any park entry fees, parking passes, and ferry fares.
What to Bring
Participants should bring their own binoculars and/or scopes if they have them. Outings are typically for several hours, so bring enough food and water for the entire time. Appropriate clothing - layers and raincoats are often a must. Drivers should bring your Discover Pass or any other passes you might have.
What Not to Bring or Do
Dogs are not allowed on our outings. Pishing and playback calls are allowed at the trip leader’s discretion.
Skill Level
We provide a variety of outings that accommodate many birding skill levels. Birders of all levels of ability are welcome on all outings. Most trips are great for beginning birders, as our experienced birders love to teach and share their passion and knowledge with newcomers.
