[Maine-birds] Maine Big Sit! Weekend - Oct. 12 and 13.

Hi all! Just want to make sure people are aware that Big Sit! weekend is coming up. For those who haven't participated before, the Big Sit! is an all-day birding event where teams attempt to identify as many bird species as possible without leaving a 17-foot circle. It's birding from your backside, and it's a lot of fun.

The event is organized by Bird Watcher's Digest, and teams can register their own circles through BWD if you'd like. There are currently two registered public circles in Maine: one at Maine Audubon's Gilsland Farm in Falmouth (Oct. 12) and another run by the Merrymeeting Audubon Chapter at Wharton Point on Maquoit Bay in Brunswick (Oct. 13). If there are other registered circles, please announce yourselves!

Both of Maine Audubon's circles are FREE and open to birders of all ages and ability levels. Stop by starting at dawn on the appropriate day. Good birding!

Good birding!
