Big Sit!

Big Sit! Fundraiser

The weekend of Oct 11/12 (The day depends on the weather.)

This year our Connecticut “Big Sit!” champion team, the B.W. Surf Scopers, (Jim Dugan, Patrick Dugan, Tina Green, and Frank Mantlik) will again defend, and attempt to break, our own Connecticut “Big Sit!” birding record–107 species of birds seen from within a 17-foot circle. This international event, created by the New Haven Bird Club, and sponsored by Bird Watchers Digest, will be held either Saturday, or Sunday, October 11 or 12th, with teams competing worldwide. Our goal is to raise critical funds for the Coastal Center by spotting as many different species of birds as possible without leaving our seats! Please help support our efforts.

We need your help to make this event the best yet –  the Connecticut Audubon Coastal Center with a pledge.  Every dollar of support will go directly to the Connecticut Audubon Coastal Center at Milford Point – truly one of the best birding destinations in the Northeast!  Your donation is 100% tax deductible; the money is used to support our conservation and education efforts. Please visit our webpage at www.ctaudubon.org for a pledge form, or contact us at 203-878-7440 x 502.  We appreciate your generous support.

Thank you!
