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+ Nature Journaling and Illustration - Joint Trip with Denver Audubon. This is a continuing Birds Plus+ series where we will practice a growing hobby in DFO and now Denver Audubon - nature journaling. Nature journaling is the practice of recording your observations in nature with illustrations and written content. A more in-depth description and examples of nature journaling can be found here: https://johnmuirlaws.com/nature-journaling-starting-growing/.
Join us for an evening journaling session at Kingery Nature Center! We will meet at the Nature Center where we will start our time together with a walk, weather allowing, to observe birds, plants, and any other wildlife we encounter. Following our walk we will head inside the Center to draw our observations. I will be providing lose instruction on how to draw birds and landscapes from your observations using various art mediums (pencils, paints, etc), but you will be working independently for the majority of the time. This trip will be mostly sedentary, but will require more supplies than a normal DFO trip. In addition to your optics, you will need to provide your own journal or drawing paper and drawing or painting supplies. Art skills and birding skills of all levels are welcomed! In addition to optics and drawing supplies, I suggest bringing plenty of layers and a warm drink - they help keep body temps and spirits warm!
This trip is filled and you will be placed on the waiting list when you register
