Birding checklist

Ethical Birding Guidelines:

● Be aware of sensitive and threatened species that might be vulnerable to disturbance.
● Do not share nest locations of sensitive species except with appropriate wildlife officials or conservation scientists.
● Stay at a distance where you are not agitating birds or modifying their behavior, especially near nests.
● Leave dogs at home or on a leash if in an area with ground nesting birds. Shorebirds, such as Snowy Plovers, that nest on beaches are especially vulnerable to loose dogs.
● Limit use of pishing and playback — Do not use in heavily birded areas or for sensitive species.
● Drive slowly and carefully.
● Stay on designated trails, do not trample vegetation.
● If leading a birding group, be aware of group size and make sure it is not so large that it is damaging the habitat or interfering with others using the same area.
● Make sure all group members are aware of and practicing ethical birding guidelines
● Respect private property rights, only enter with express permission.
● Follow all traffic rules, drive the speed limit, don’t park on the road, keep eyes on the road.
● Don’t point binoculars towards other people or directly into yards or windows.
● Always be polite and courteous to non-birders you encounter, share your knowledge when appropriate.
● If birding with others, be respectful of the ability of all group members, be encouraging and share your knowledge with beginners.
