RRAS Guided FIELD TRIPS Members and the public
are invited to see nature first-hand during RRAS Guided Field Trips to the
best birding areas that can be reached within a day, or over a weekend, of
the Las Vegas or surrounding southern Nevada region. Field Trips
also provide opportunities for volunteers to help with wildlife habitat
restoration or preservation. Red Rock Audubon Society Birding Field

however occasionally there are entrance fees which will be specifically
