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. Any minor attending must be accompanied by their parent or legal guardian.
Logged in users who have a signed Agreement on file will have the opportunity to print or save it at any time. Click on the link to the printable copy and use your browser functions to save or print.

Birds Plus+ Bird Photography. This trip will have a mission to photograph ducks, as we enjoy all the birds we can find. We will begin at Prospect Lake, and probably move over to Clear Creek upstream of I-70. These areas will give us a chance to find a nice variety of fall migrant ducks in nice lighting. Learn more about taking good bird photos with photographer co-leader Dave Prentice. Dave is an avid birder/photographer and a frequent photo contributor to DFO's (and CFO's) print and digital publications. All levels of photography experience are welcome, and you can come even if you are not a photographer. Come with questions. We'll look for ducks and other water birds, possible Wilson's Snipe and American Dipper. Rusty Blackbird has shown up in recent fall seasons. Bring your camera, sturdy walking shoes, and a snack and drink. We may walk up to 2.5 miles.
