Covid-19 Safety Guidelines

When local regulations allow, and we have in-person bird walks, the following guidelines, following the CDC protocol, will be followed by leaders and should be followed by all participants.

  • If you are feeling ill or have a fever, stay home and do not go out in public.

  • Wear a mask properly (covering mouth and nose) at all times while on walks.

  • Stay at least 6 feet away (2 arm lengths) from other participants.

  • Do not share binoculars, scopes or other personal effects.

  • Bring hand sanitizer and avoid high touch surfaces such as handrails, benches, picnic tables, and Nature Play Areas.

Chicago Audubon Society will make every attempt to have enough leaders on hand to allow for all participants to enjoy the birds despite having to maintain distance.
