Trip Registration

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.

This field trip will contribute to the annual Broomfield Christmas Bird Count, focusing exclusively on Section 5. Section 5 is a large, diverse area running from the South Platte River in the East to I-25 in the West, and from Highway 7 in the North to 128th Avenue in the South. Here is a full map of this section and the count circle: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/1/viewer?mid=1e_NlnDWgYhxNjhHaMh_ctDbqO8VCXAs&ll=39.97609059689232%2C-104.99369700000001&z=11

We will start our day at the Adams County Fairgrounds, located in the southeastern most part of our count area. The day's birding will cover a variety of key habitats, including the Adams County Fairgrounds, the South Platte adjacent reservoirs and accessible river portions, Marshall Lake, Hunters Glenn, Trail Winds Park, and Big Dry Creek Open Space, and more hotspots. A significant part of our count will also involve neighborhood birding within this developed area.

Participants should be prepared for a full day of activity, which may involve as much as 6-8 miles of walking throughout the day. However, since the count is within a relatively developed area, we will never be far from facilities. We will make stops as needed for restrooms, water, and food. We will be birding as a single, coordinated group and will carpool from our meeting location to make this more efficient. The counting is expected to conclude by no later than 3:00 PM, though we will likely finish earlier. After the count, at 4:00 PM, there is an optional final tally at a Broomfield city facility where all teams from the various sections will gather to report their findings.

1 person has registered for this trip. There is no maximum.
