As part of your registration, in order to participate in a Denver Field Ornithologists, Inc. (“DFO”) trip or other activities designated by the Board of Directors, each adult participant and the parent of a minor participant (those under 18 yrs. of age) are required to review and sign (either electronically or manually) a DFO Acknowledgment and Assumption of Risks & Release and Indemnity Agreement (sometimes “Agreement”) Completing this document involves your acceptance of binding contract terms. This online registration system allows you to review and electronically sign the Agreement if you do not have one on file. If you would prefer to manually sign a printable version of the Agreement, you may access it here, and present it to the leader before trip start. If you choose this option, please contact your leader to assure you are signed up for the trip.
Please note: Each person, including each family member choosing to sign the Agreement electronically must login and have a separate account so that the agreement is tied to the individual. If you are having difficulty with multiple logins, please contact us for assistance. *Minors: If participant is a minor, the minor’s parent or legal guardian must print out, review and sign a paper copy of the Agreement and present it to the leader before the trip start.

Habitats to bird: Riparian
Riparian and Ponderosa birds are to be expected. This will be a dawn chorus trip, out & back for a total of about 3-4 miles. Trail is easy, but narrow and rocky in places, and becomes somewhat steep on the west side of the creek crossing. We'll encounter a nice variety of songbirds, warblers, grosbeaks and hummers in the low riparian habitat. We'll take time on the uphill hike as we scan and listen for ponderosa species, Bring snacks, water and dress in layers for cool weather pre-dawn, warming substantially during the morning.
