The Denver Field Ornithologists will once again host "The Big Sit!" at Chatfield State Park on Sunday, October 11th. This will be the seventh year for this fun and frivolous event. It is open to the public and I welcome EVERYONE! It will be held from (before) dawn to (after) dusk, come for an hour or stay all day, whatever works for your schedule. I perform hourly counts so that every hour there are "new" birds to be added to the hour's count. State Parks will be erecting a canopy (for shade from the sun, or shelter from rain) and even offered to bring some breakfast foods! The Big Sit! at Chatfield will be located at the Heronry Overlook on the east side of the lake. Just follow the signs located at both entrances. Bring your own chair or use the bench seating provided by the herony deck. Bring binoculars, spotting scope, food, water, sushi, whatever you need to spend time birding! If you cannot attend "The Big Sit!" at Chatfield try to attend another nearer you (it sounds like Connie Kogler is putting one together "up north" so stay tuned!)...or even start your own! Like Connie Kogler pointed out, the details and rules can be found at: http://www.birdwatchersdigest.com/site/funbirds/bigsit/bigsit.aspx Joey Kellner Littleton, CO
