Thursday, May 7, 2026: FWAS Big Sit! at Richland Creek WMA
Join Ted Drozdowski and other Ft. Worth Audubon team members as we take part in this year’s 30th Annual Great Texas Birding Classic. Our count circle will be at the Richland Creek Wildlife Management Area, about 25 miles east of Corsicana, on the Navarro/Freestone County line. Last year, Ted extended his invitation to more folks.
As with all Big Sits, we plan on being there from dawn to dusk, but participants are free to come and go as they please. The group’s list of 105 species was the highest official big sit total for the interior of Texas, ever!
The cost is $30.00 which includes this year’s official GTBC t-shirt. Please note, if our dates are rained out, the registration fee is non-refundable. You will still receive a great t-shirt. Proceeds from your registration support bird habitat and education programs in Texas.
NOTE: The sign-up registration for this group’s Big Sit is March 29th. Ted is scheduled to travel for the first few weeks in April, so he wants to have his team registered before he then. Ted has also decided to handle all team member registrations with Texas Parks and Wildlife. Send your confirmation to join to Ted, and he will send you payment details.
Contact Ted Drozdowski at drozdovekie@sbcglobal.net, or call (817) 908-6897.
Participants will also need a ‘Limited Public Use’ permit to access the WMAs. Go online to https://www.txfgsales.com/CustomerSearch.aspx, enter the data, and select the LPU Permit Item 175. the permit cost $12 a year, and expires August 31 of each year. It is good for access to all WMAs in Texas.
