Birding EtiquetteNovice and seasoned birders alike are reminded to show consideration for their fellow birders by keeping talking and other disruptive activities to a minimum while on the trail and observing birds.Dogs are best left at home, and children need to be taught to be quiet and respectful of others when on bird outings.
