After two years without our in-person annual conference, WFO resumed with our 2022 annual conference in Reno, Nevada. As always, the conference offered excellent and informative presentations and workshops, as well as a variety of field trips to many of the hotspots in west-central Nevada, Lake Tahoe, and the east-central Sierra Nevada of California. Participants enjoyed spectacular scenery, great weather, and the bird highlights of fall migration. If you missed the conference, highlights are below.
