Field Trips
Bald Eagle / Stephanie Orlando / Audubon Photography Awards
Due to the ongoing public health crisis, we are not operating or scheduling field trips at this time.
There are other ways to bird with us while social distancing!
- Participate in an online class.
- Watch birds with us during the Big Backyard Birdathon. Birdathon is like a walkathon, except you count bird species instead of miles.

Public Health — Seattle & King County has released new proactive public health recommendations meant to slow the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19). Seattle Audubon is responding to these latest recommendations with additional changes to our activities. We undertake these changes to reduce risks for the members of our community at higher risk of severe illness. We will continue to evaluate as new information becomes available.
Out of an abundance of caution, we are announcing modifications to our upcoming activities. For our full activities update and a list of resources, please read this statement.

Seattle Audubon offers field trips throughout the year. Beginner birders are encouraged to join any field trip, and trip listings contain details about pace, terrain, walking distance, and information about vehicle travel.
Neighborhood Bird Walk are less formal than field trips, as they do not require sign-ups and tend to last around two hours. NBW’s introduce participants to many fine birding locations in the greater Seattle area. Families are welcome.
