Annual Lake Waxahachie Big Sit! at Ted D.’s home
The Annual Lake Waxahachie Big Sit! event will be on Saturday, Oct 11, 2025, and you’re invited!
Join Fort Worth Audubon Society member Ted Drozdowski at his place for this annual event on the western end of Lake Waxahachie in central Ellis County. The Big Sit! is a semi-competitive birding event originated by the New Haven Bird Club in 1992. Participants stay in a 17-foot diameter circle and count species of birds from that circle. The Big Sit has been called “Birding’s Tailgate Party!” Participants now also have a chance to win a pair of Zeiss Conquest® HD 8x 42 binoculars. The team that finds the “Golden Bird*” will win the binoculars. (READ TED’S FULL DETAILS HERE.)
Participants are free to come at any time of the day and for any length of duration as we will be manning the circle from dawn to dusk. However, you must contact Ted ahead of time to sign up so we know you’re coming. For more information and/or to RSVP, you’ll need to E-mail Ted at muddykayak@gmail.com or text him at 817-908-6897
