Important Notes

Please do not bring unregistered guests. It is unfair to your fellow birders on the waitlist and unfair to our volunteer guides. If you are on the Waitlist and have not received an email that a space has opened, unfortunately we're at capacity and can't add more to our flock for this workshop.

CANCELLATION: In case of unforseen circumstances that may cause cancellation, you will be emailed at least 2 hours before the meeting time. So please check before you head out.


Refund Policy: Full refunds are provided for refund requests received up to 3 days prior to the program date.
