Field Trips
We do our best to design our field trips around your birding interests and personal comfort. Here are a few guidelines that will help us meet these objectives.
- Always have a rain garment, extra pair of dry socks, bug repellent, water, a high energy snack and pain/insect bite relief medication.
- In Alaska, fragrances attract grizzle bears. For your safety and that of others, please avoid using any fragrances (perfume or cologne, scented deodorants, etc.).
- When a field trip requires multiple cars, Yellowbilled Tours will try to supply walkie-talkies for each car.
- Tell your driver if you need a restroom stop.
- Carry extra ziploc bags
- Carry chewing gum to share
- Respect wildlife. Don’t feed wildlife.
- Bring a picture of your pet to share.
- Let the your field guide know if you have a hearing disability during registration period.
