Guidelines for Participants
Mecklenburg Audubon bird walks (1/2 day) and field trips (full day or longer) are a great way to learn more about resident and migrating birds in the Charlotte region and beyond. They are also a great way to meet people who share your interest in birds and the outdoors. Beginning birders are welcome on all our trips but we do have at least one a month designed specifically for beginners. Unless otherwise noted, our field trips are free and open to the public. Come learn about birds from enthusiastic, volunteer field trip leaders.
On occasion, field trips may have to be cancelled (bad weather, etc.) or important details may change (for example, the original meeting spot for a site may have to be changed if there is a trail closure or parking problem). ALWAYS check this site, our local discussion list (Meckbirds), and/or our Facebook group the night before a scheduled field trip for updates.
​
Liability Statement: By signing up for and/or attending a bird walk/field trip sponsored by Mecklenburg Audubon, you acknowledge these activities may be hazardous. You agree you are voluntarily participating in these activities and assume any risk of physical injury or damage to your property.

To ensure an enjoyable walk for everyone please read our Bird Walk Etiquette guidelines. Thanks and we look forward to seeing you on the trail.
