Wednesday Morning Birding
We will attempt to be consistent with CDC and local guidelines in that MASKS and SOCIAL DISTANCING will be in place. The birding will usually last two hours. Craig and Kris Rash are our leaders. People of all levels of birding experience are welcome and encouraged to participate. This is a good opportunity to familiarize yourself with birding hotspots in our PRAS counties. Binoculars will be provided if you need to borrow a pair. The sightings for each field trip will be posted on our social media.
Please use your judgement as to whether or not to attend on a given day if weather threatens. Check your email and/or Facebook for cancellation notices from PRAS; however, the PRAS website may not be updated to reflect cancellations due to the absence of the volunteer webmaster. Call cell # 319 290 9832 only if absolutely necessary.
