Reminder COBIRDERS! The Denver Field Ornithologists are once again sponsor and I will host "The Big Sit!" at Chatfield State Park today. This will be the 13th year for this fun and frivolous event. It is open to the public and EVERYONE is welcome! It will be held from (before) dawn to (after) dusk, come for an hour or stay all day, whatever works for your schedule. In addition to a day list we perform hourly counts so that every hour there are "new" birds to be added to the hour's count. "The Big Sit!" at Chatfield is located at the Heronry Overlook on the east side of the reservoir. Just follow the signs located at both entrances. Bring your own chair or use the bench seating provided by the heronry overlook deck. Bring binoculars, spotting scope, food, water, or whatever you need to spend time birding! This year's weather looks to be perfect!
Past Big Sit! day totals range from a low of 52 species to a high of 71 species (two different years). The total number of species seen across all past 12 years is 124. All from ONE spot! No fee; State Parks pass required per car. See you there! Joey Kellner Littleton, Colorado -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
