["Dan and Laurie Mooney" <birds@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You can see a list of the registered sites at this link:  
http://www.birdwatchersdigest.com/site/funbirds/bigsit/results05/circles_registered.php

There are only 3 sites registered in Tennessee, 1 in Geogia, 0 in Kentucky and 
1 in North Carolina.  

For the last two years we participated by counting in our yard and have managed 
just over 50 species each year.  

I would like to offer a challange to all Tennessee birders.  

All Tennessee teams would donate a dollar for the differnence between their 
total and the highest team total to the TOS Conservation fund.

Example:  If the Birdnerds team gets 50 species and the Niteowls get 60 
species, the Birdnerds would donate $10.00 to the TOS Conservation fund.   

Anyone interested?

  Hi,
  I was wondering if anybody in the Chattanooga area was doing the Big Sit! If 
any one is, please let me know, I would love to do it.
  Thanks,
