(“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.

Let's have our own birding Super Bowl: it's Super Duck Sunday 2025! We will take the morning to visit a few ducky places, enjoying variety and watching to see which team will win. It is Dabbling Ducks vs. Diving Ducks for our game. Each species we find of dabblers or divers adds 7 points to that team's score. But watch out for those ducky Special Teams! Each observation of duck courtship scores 3 points for that species' team, and if we see a pair of ducks copulating - touchdown! Divers are more diverse in winter, but Dabblers can be more frisky. Come join the fun to find out who will win this year! We will have great opportunities to learn about duck ID and find many species, too. We will begin at Prospect Lake in Wheat Ridge and move to other spots in the area. We may walk up to 3 miles at our few locations. Restrooms may be limited. We will carpool as convenient to travel between spots. Bring a Game Day potluck snack to share at the end. Go team!
(Super Duck Sunday Stats: the Dabblers won in 2023 but the Divers won in 2024)
