The Big Sit at the Festival
Saturday, May 11, 2024, 6:30am–12pm
Free Event
Location: Horicon Marsh Education and Visitor Center
Join Horicon birders Seth Cutright and Becca Sher for a unique way to bird watch!
From 6:30 AM to 12:00 PM we will identify as many bird species as possible from a 17-foot circle on the back patio of the Horicon Marsh Education and Visitor Center. Come and join us for all or part of this annual event as we try to ID every bird seen and or heard from this location.
The area has great views of the cattail marsh, open water, grassland, shrubbery and trees and give this location a high mark for species potential. This will be a new location for the Big Sit and we are hoping to add as many species as possible. Feel free to check-in throughout the morning to see where our count stands.
Donations are greatly appreciated; as this is our main funding source for Club projects and the fun and educational Bird Festival. There will be a donation box located at the Horicon Marsh Education and Visitor Center. Donations can also be made on our website.
Please note: All or parts of the event will be canceled if there is bad weather.
