All trips are
open to anyone interested in birding, wildlife watching, and exploring Florida's
natural areas. No reservations are necessary unless otherwise noted on the
outings descriptions available below. Fees for reserved trips must be received
in advance to insure a reservation.
For all trips, please bring binoculars, bird/nature guides,
water, snacks, and sunscreen. Wear comfortable walking shoes (no flip-flops!)
and a hat, and please note that some trips may require shoes to get wet.
Please remember to walk and speak quietly during the outings
so as not to frighten the wildlife. Arrive at least 15 minutes prior to
departure times to sign in. Walkie-talkies will be provided this year on
outings, but please be sure to return these to the trip leader before departing.
Car pooling, when possible, is appreciated. All trips are
subject to rescheduling or cancellation due to inclement weather or other
unforeseen circumstances. Contact information for each outing is provided
in the description.
Please note that some of the trips require
pre-registration and some have limited numbers of participants.
