The Big Sit at Kyker Bottoms Refuge 
Sunday, October 9 @ dawn until dusk 
Leaders: Mike Nelson & Janet Lee McKnight 



The Big Sit is an annual, nation-wide count where birders sit for a one-day 
period in a 17-foot circle. In theory, in good habitat, all possible species 
should eventually show themselves. Join Mike Nelson and Janet Lee McKnight for 
birding while sitting still. (It may be worth showing up just to see Mike sit 
still!) Bring a chair to the count circle and add a species or two to the list. 
Janet forewarns that "no one may enter the count circle without bringing a 
brownie, a cupcake, or ice cream." Meet at the observation platform. This event 
will be cancelled in case of rain. For questions or more info, call Janet at ( 
865) 271-8337 . For site info and directions, visit
