Grab your binoculars and field guide and join us on some interesting field trips!

Trips are subject to weather and last-minute changes. There are no rain dates. Birds and Brews events involve some birding followed by an optional visit to a local pub or restaurant. All times are Central Time. See our Facebook page or electronic newsletter for up to date information or call/text Ron Houser at 850-774-9733.
For All Trips: Please be courteous by talking softly and not talking on your phone while others are trying to see or hear birds. Please stay behind the trip leader and try to stay together as much as possible. Please stay on the trails to avoid damage to native vegetation and to avoid hazards like fire ants.
 
BCAS field trips are free* and open to the public. Remember: Use proper birding etiquette, stay on the trails, limit talking while others are trying to hear birds, bring sunscreen, insect repellent, walking shoes, snacks and drinks. If you don’t have binoculars, we have some to lend. Call Ron Houser for questions: 850-774-9733.
*Some trips require an entry fee or pass.
