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.

Habitats to bird: Developed, Riparian
Join for one last birding jaunt for the year! We will visit two areas along the South Platte to look for a variety of ducks, including Denver's wintering male Barrow's Goldeneye. We might also see Greater Scaup and a variety of other ducks, geese (plus possible Ross's or Snow) and whatever else we can find. We will begin looking near Reynold's Landing in Littleton and then move downstream to the area between Evans and Florida in Denver. We walk about a mile in each area we visit. Bring snack and drink and dress in layers. A spotting scope will be helpful, but the leader will have one to share. There may be snowy or icy conditions. We will be on level paths, and may walk a short way along a single track trail. Restroom at the first location.
