Field Trips

Field Trips and COVID-19: 

If you have any symptoms of illness, however mild, please do not attend an in-person Audubon activity. If you have been recently exposed to someone with COVID, please also do not attend.

Binoculars:

Want to borrow binoculars or a field guide for your trip? We have Nikon Monarch 8x42 binoculars to lend out for field trips as needed and also Western North American bird field guides. When you RSVP, be sure to indicate if you'd like to borrow binoculars or a field guide and how many.

 

These items were purchased with grant money from the Monterey County Fish and Game Advisory Commission - thank you!
