General guidelines

Carpool if possible!

Try to be on time... but if you're late, you might be able to catch up with us.  We often spend a little time in the parking area looking at the birds!

Please don't bring pets.  Dress for a field trip - good walking shoes, hat, sunscreen are all helpful.  Don't forget your binoculars, and if you have a scope, it's especially nice to bring it on trips where we're looking at water birds.
