Tonight CFO hosted speaker Freya McGregor from Birdability on Zoom speaking about ways to be a more welcoming and inclusive birding community.
One thing mentioned that most of us can do is to take a few extra minutes the next time you are out birding at a reasonably accessible location to make some observations about accessibility and contribute to the birdability map so that all birders can have access to information to find birding locations in your area that will suit their needs. Print out a copy of the checklist to take with you and then submit your results online. It could be a fun challenge to fill in blanks on the birdability map in your area. https://www.birdability.org/contribute-to-the-birdability-map For more ideas, we will be sharing a link to the talk later this week if you missed it.

But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
