SUMMARY:***CANCELLED*** Ganondagan State Historic Site State Park Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:This trip has generated large species lists due to the many habitat types we will travel through.  We will start from the parking lot to the longhouse and the meadowlark field and then head down a wide trail through woods\, shrubland\, wetland to an overlook in grassland.  The round trip is 1.5 miles and is suitable for most. \nAfter we reach the overlook\, those who wish can continue for another 2 miles on the narrower Seneca Trail through field and woods\, across County Route 41\, and along a wooded stream valley to the Bobolink field. \nMeet at 8:00 a.m. at the lower main parking lot for the Seneca Art & Culture Center at Ganondagan\, 7000 County Road 41 (Boughton Hill Road) Victor\, NY 14564. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:***CANCELLED*** Letchworth State Park Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:This trip frequently boasts more birds than any other RBA field trip.  Of course\, it gets an early start!  We’ll look for birds not frequently seen on other trips\, such as Acadian Flycatcher and Barred Owl.  We’ll do a fair amount of walking: one somewhat steep but short forest trail and a dirt road down to the river level\, as well as some roadside birding. \nMeet at 5:30 a.m. at the Dam Overlook Gifts and Grill parking lot (use the Route 36 entrance to Letchworth Park).  Pack a lunch and snacks as the trip will likely last well into mid-afternoon. \nExtra spotting scopes would be very helpful.

SUMMARY:***CANCELLED*** Bergen Swamp Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:A trip to this unique place is by special permit from the Bergen Swamp Preservation Society and will feature nesting birds.  The mix of vegetation zones provides secluded nesting habitat for the usual western N.Y. species as well as those more characteristic of the Canadian zone such as Blue-headed Vireo\, Hermit Thrush\, Magnolia\, Blackburnian\, Black-and-white\, Canada and Nashville Warblers. \nThis is a walking trip of 3–5 miles on variably wet and slippery corduroy trails that must be followed closely for safety reasons and because of the fragile habitat.  Sturdy boots (rather than sneakers) are STRONGLY recommended\, and hiking or ski poles may be useful.  Massasauga rattlesnakes are VERY rarely encountered. \nParking at the trailhead is limited\, so we will meet at 7:30 a.m. in the parking lot of the 7-11 Gas Station at the junction of Routes 33 and 19.  Drive about 20 miles west of Rochester on I-490 to exit 2.  Turn right (west) on Route 33 and go about one mile to the junction with Route 19.  Turn left onto Route 19\, then make an immediate left turn into the parking lot.

SUMMARY:Conesus Inlet State WMA Field Trip - Registration Required!
DESCRIPTION:Explore this expansive wetland for Virginia Rails and Wood Duck families. We’ve seen eagles on a reliable basis\, Cliff Swallows and more. We will hope for Red-headed Woodpeckers (although they have not been seen recently) and other goodies on this fun trip. \n\nMeet at 7:30 a.m. at Vitale Park on Route 20A in Lakeville. The park entrance is by the Lakeville post office on the south (lake) side of Route 20A and across the street from Smith’s Hardware. There’s a possibility of a trip extension to the Geneseo Airport area. \n\n\nCOVID-19 Policies and Procedures\nDue to the novel coronavirus pandemic\, the Rochester Birding Association is instituting the following procedures for all field trips. By registering for this field trip\, you acknowledge that you have read and will abide by these policies. \nRegistration Policies: \n• Advance registration through Eventbrite is required in order to attend the trip. NYS guidelines currently allow no more than 25 individuals at an outdoor gathering. All trips will be capped to meet that requirement\, and exact capacity limits will be determined on a trip by trip basis. \n• Individuals who did not pre-register will not be allowed to attend the field trip. \n• Should you decide not to attend the trip\, we encourage you to cancel your reservation to make room for others. Canceling is easily done through the Eventbrite website; see your confirmation email for details. \nHealth Screening Considerations: \n• Full contact information is required at registration\, in case contact tracing is requested. \n• No one who has a temperature of 100.4F or greater (without having taken any fever-reducing medications) should attend. \n• No one who has any COVID-19 symptoms (fever\, cough\, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing\, chills\, muscle pain\, sore throat\, or loss of taste or smell) should attend. \n• No one who has tested positive for COVID-19 in the past 14 days or who has been instructed to self-isolate or quarantine should attend. \n• No one who has been in close (within 6 feet) or proximate (same closed environment\, but greater than 6 feet) contact with anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19 or who has had symptoms of COVID-19 within the past 14 days\, should attend. \n• No one who has traveled or who lives with someone who has traveled to a country or state on the New York coronavirus travel advisory list in the last 14 days should attend. \n• Participants who test positive for the coronavirus within 14 days after attending a field trip are encouraged to contact the RBA. \nSocial Distancing and Safety Best Practices \n• Participants will be required to stay 6 feet apart at all times and wear a mask whenever they are outside of their car. \n• Participants that reside in the same household may share binoculars or scopes\, but we regret that otherwise optics cannot be shared. We realize this may be frustrating for those who do not have their own spotting scopes. To the extent possible\, we will choose birding locations that do not require advanced optics. \n• Participants are encouraged to keep hand sanitizer with them in case of accidental contact. \n\n\nWaive and Release from Liability: By registering for this field trip you acknowledge that you assume all risks and hazards incidental to the activities of the event\, including potential exposure to the novel coronavirus. You further release\, absolve\, hold harmless\, defend and indemnify the Rochester Birding Association\, Inc. and all individually named organizers\, leaders\, and participants of the event. In case of injury\, you hereby waive all claims against all organizers\, leaders\, and participants. \nPhoto/Video Waiver: If you do not consent to have your image used by the RBA in the manner next described\, write “no photo” after your name on the registration form. Otherwise\, by registering for this field trip you hereby grant permission to the Rochester Birding Association to take and publish photos or videos of you in connection with the event listed above\, with or without your name and for any lawful purpose including for example such purposes as publicity\, illustration\, advertising\, and web content.

SUMMARY:***CANCELLED*** Beginner Trip: Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge
DESCRIPTION:Learn more about the fall migration of shorebirds in this nearby birding treasure.  We’ll visit key spots you’ll want to revisit again and again! \nMeet at 1:00 p.m. in the Bushnell’s Basin Park and Ride lot.  The lot is off Route 96 just south of Exit 27 from I-490.  Alternatively\, meet up with the group at the first stop\, the Montezuma visitor center at 2:00 p.m. \nExtra spotting scopes would be very helpful. \nNote: This is a field trip for beginners. New birders should feel free to join these trips regardless of experience level: bring binoculars if you have them\, and we will share our scopes. The pace & focus of Beginner Trips may not be satisfying for experienced birders.

SUMMARY:Whiting Road Nature Preserve - Registration Opens Sept. 26!
DESCRIPTION:This preserve includes about 240 acres of land that is made up of a variety of birding habitats. This results in decent birding lists throughout the year. The trails are well marked and maintained. However\, they do get muddy at times\, so appropriate footwear is recommended based on the weather leading up to the trip date. Most of the trails are somewhat flat\, but there definitely will be a bit of up and down trail climbing in some sections. Hopefully\, our trek will take us on parts of the blue\, brown\, orange\, and red trails. [This trip is not handicap accessible. Moderate difficulty in a few spots. Length about 2.5 miles. Restroom facilities are not available.] \nWe will meet at 8:00 a.m. in the parking lot on Whiting Road in Webster\, 0.6 miles south of Lake Road. \nRegistration for this trip is not yet open. \n\nCOVID-19 Policies and Procedures\nDue to the novel coronavirus pandemic\, the Rochester Birding Association is instituting the following procedures for all field trips.

SUMMARY:Hamlin Beach State Park Field Trip - Cancelled
DESCRIPTION:We regret that due to the COVID-19 pandemic\, the RBA has decided to cancel this trip.  Lake-watching requires scopes\, and we believe that not being able to share would negatively impact the experience for many. \n_____ \nWe’ll start off walking wooded and brushy areas of the park\, looking for thrushes\, sparrows\, and maybe a half-hardy warbler or two.  After that\, we’ll stop by the lake watch to view ducks on the water and in flight\, learning about the lake watch process as we share scopes.  Dress appropriately for cooler weather along the lake\, and wear comfortable footwear. \nMeet at 8:00 a.m. in Hamlin Beach State Park\, Parking Lot 1.

SUMMARY:Batavia Wastewater Treatment Plant Field Trip - Cancelled
DESCRIPTION:We regret that due to the COVID-19 pandemic\, the RBA has decided to cancel this trip.  Potential closures of this facility to the public and the inability to carpool make this trip difficult or impossible at the current time. \n_____ \nWhy a wastewater treatment plant?  Open water and a great location mean that this spot appears regularly on fall birding lists.  We will drive on the banks of the ponds\, getting out wherever the birds are congregating.  Discover the great opportunity this spot (and its helpful staff) offers. \nMeet at 9:00 a.m. at the wastewater treatment plant at the end of Industrial Blvd.\, which is off Pearl Street (Route 33) at the western edge of the city of Batavia.  From the NYS Thruway (I-90) at Batavia\, exit 48\, go south on Route 98 into the city of Batavia.  At the second light (candy store)\, make a right turn onto Pearl Street (or Genesee Street)\, which is Route 33.  Go west approximately 0.5 miles to Industrial Blvd. and make a left.  Proceed south past the railroad tracks and straight up the hill and through the open gates to the entrance building of the treatment plant (first building on your left). \nOr\, from Rochester\, take I-490 W\, to Exit 2 (Route 33 west).  Follow Route 33 west through Batavia; turn left onto Oak Street (Route 33)\, stay right at roundabout\, continue on Route 33\, 0.5 miles to Industrial Blvd.\, turn left.  Continue straight across the railroad tracks and up the hill.  Turn left into the parking lot of the offices. \nWe will carpool from the plant offices.

SUMMARY:Niagara River Field Trip - Cancelled
DESCRIPTION:As the US-Canadian border remains closed\, and as this trip relies heavily on scopes\, the RBA has regretfully decided to cancel this trip for 2020.  We hope that we will be able to offer this gull-a-palooza again next year. \n_ _ _ _ _ \nJoin us on our birding venture along the Niagara River in both the US and Canada.  We will start at Lake Ontario and work our way south to the Falls.  Our focus will be on waterfowl and gulls\, including Bonaparte’s Gull and Little Gull\, with possible late migrating Common Tern\, with additional stops for Red-headed Woodpecker\, Black Vulture and late migrating passerines. \nMeet at the Old Fort Niagara parking lot at 9:00 am. Bring beverages and lunch\, for this is an all day trip.  Carpooling is strongly advised\, as we will be crossing into Canada. \nParticipants MUST bring passports or enhanced driver’s licenses. \nDress warmly and in layers.  Extra spotting scopes would be very helpful.

SUMMARY:Lakeshore Plains West Field Trip - Registration Opens January 24\, 2021
DESCRIPTION:A driving tour of the farm fields and open lands to the west of Rochester\, this trip will search for Snow Buntings\, Lapland Longspurs\, Northern Shrikes\, and hawks in the plains and country roads of western Monroe and Orleans Counties.  If the weather cooperates\, we may venture as far as Golden Hill State Park for a look at the lake and a short walk.  Dress warmly in layers; bring a snack and a thermos filled with cocoa.  We will drive along backcountry roads for a few hours\, stopping where we see bird activity.  Barring the possible walk at Golden Hill\, this trip should be handicapped-accessible. No restrooms available. \nMeet at 9:00 a.m. at the Braddock Bay Park main parking lot.  Use the East Manitou Road exit from the Ontario State Parkway. \nBring your own FRS radios and spotting scopes\, if you have them. \nCOVID-19 Policies and Procedures \nDue to the novel coronavirus pandemic\, the Rochester Birding Association is instituting the following procedures for all field trips.

SUMMARY:Beginner Birder Trip:  Owl Woods & Hawk Watch Site - Registration Opens March 20\, 2021
DESCRIPTION:We’ll look primarily for our smallest visiting owl\, the Northern Saw-whet\, which returns to this spot on a yearly basis.  Long-eared Owls generally put in an appearance\, too\, although they’re quite shy and great at hiding.  After the owl walk\, we’ll head to the Hawk Watch site to learn how to identify raptors on the wing.  At this time of year\, we might witness spectacular flights of thousands of raptors! \nThe Owl Woods trails are flat and likely will be wet and muddy. Boots are STRONGLY recommended – they’re almost mandatory! No restrooms available. Bring binoculars and\, if you have them\, spotting scopes.  \nMeet at 8:30 a.m. in the parking lot on the right side of Manitou Beach Road across from the Owl Woods trail head \nNote: This is a field trip for beginners. New birders should feel free to join these trips regardless of experience level: bring binoculars if you have them. The pace & focus of Beginner Trips may not be satisfying for experienced birders. Our Beginner Trips focus on teaching identification skills\, learning new habitats\, and answering questions. Experienced birders are welcome but may be pressed into service as educators! \nCOVID-19 Policies and Procedures \nDue to the novel coronavirus pandemic\, the Rochester Birding Association is instituting the following procedures for all field trips.
