The Wisconsin Society for Ornithology sponsors numerous field trips throughout the year. Wisconsin Society for Ornithology members and non-members can attend freely. Members receive priority registration. Member registration opens one month prior to the field trip date. Non-members can register within 14 days of the trip, if spots remain open. Registration closes 48 hours prior to the date of a field trip. The trips are led by some of the top birders in Wisconsin, and they provide a good opportunity to see a broad range of Wisconsin birds.
