Please join us for some fun and birding.
All level birders are welcome.

Southwest Florida has some of the best birding destinations in the country. Our trips explore many of these great places and offer an opportunity to learn, share your knowledge and enthusiasm, and have fun with your neighbors who share your interests.

There are two types of trips, "Walk-Abouts" and "Field Trips".  Walk-abouts are on the first Tuesday of the month (October-May), are designed to be more local, and are typically a low impact morning walk. Walk-Abouts begin at 8:00 a.m. at the park entrance, unless otherwise noted.

Field trips tend to be more of a nature adventure, and are often a greater travel distance from our 'home' area. They occur on the 3rd Saturday of each month.  Additional trips are occasionally scheduled. Field trips usually begin at 7:00 a.m., unless otherwise noted.  Reservations are not necessary but you are welcome to contact the trip organizer for further information. Meeting locations designated beside each trip correspond to the following locations:

IMPORTANT: Please check the White Bird close to the trip date for additonal information, including directions to Walkabout sites, and for possible changes. Announcements will also be made about a week in advance in the Charlotte Sun, PRAS Updates and Charlotte County Nature Alert.
