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.

SUMMARY:Conesus Inlet State WMA Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Explore this expansive wetland for Virginia Rail and Wood Duck families.  We’ve seen eagles on a reliable basis\, Cliff Swallow and more.

There’s a possibility of a trip extension to the Geneseo Airport area. \nExtra spotting scopes and FRS radios would be very helpful.
