We'll scan the lake from a few vantage points for waterfowl, while keeping an eye on the nearby fields and forests for other birds. A scope is not needed, but if you have one please bring it along.

A Few Basic Field Trip Guidelines:
• Cell phones should be on silent or vibrate mode.
• Keep voices low while birding to minimize disturbance of the birds and allow others in the group to hear the birds and learn their songs.
• Keep pace with the trip leader. Please do not jump ahead or fall behind.
• Bring your binoculars.
• Beginners and experienced birders all welcome!
• Have fun!
