Get your sea legs on and come join us! \n\n\n\nA pelagic birding trip is done by traveling by boat offshore to view seabirds that rarely come ashore except to breed. Seabird (pelagic) species include tropical terns\, shearwaters\, jaegers\, gannets and others. Come take a journey with Pelagic birding experts\, Michael Brothers\, Mitchell Harris\, Larry Manfredi\, & Dan Scolaro.  \n\n\n\nTHE DETAILS \n\n\n\nSpace is limited — 40 person maximum. People who are current Audubon Everglades and NAS members will have priority to register. If spaces are not filled\, it will be open to the public to register.  Registration link and details will be sent to the Member’s email. Keep an eye out\, spaces fill up fast! \n\n\n\nCost: $105 per person. This includes the boat trip\, tip for boat crew\, pelagic leaders\, snacks\, water and fun. For people unfamiliar with the cost of other pelagic trips\, this is a phenomenal value! \n\n\n\nThis is a 5 hour Pelagic Trip with Guides Michael Brothers\, Mitchell Harris\, Larry Manfredi and Dan Scolaro on board.  \n\n\n\nWe are so excited to have all these wonderful Pelagic bird guides in one place and have them share their knowledge and expertise to our Audubon Everglades audience. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nMeet our Pelagic tour leaders: \n\n\n\nMichael Brothers –  Retired as Director of the Marine Science Center in Ponce Inlet\, Michael has been leading pelagic birding expeditions off Florida and Georgia for nearly 20 years and natural history tours throughout Florida\, the Galapagos Islands\, Kenya\, and the Amazon. He is a member of the Florida Ornithological Society Records Committee and is the Florida regional editor of the journal North American Birds.  \n\n\n\nMitchell Harris (Florida Ornithological Society) – Mitchell has been interested in Natural History and all things out-of-doors from his earliest memories as a small child growing up in Vero Beach Fl. He took up birding fifteen years ago\, and is now an avid birder that is most interested in pelagic type birds but enjoys anything that flies. His spark bird might have been a white morph Gyrfalcon that he saw many years ago\, just north of the Brooks Range on the North Slope of Alaska. \n\n\n\nLarry Manfredi – Many birders might remember his name for the Western Spindalis that showed up in his yard between January 3rd and February 26\, 1992. More than 400 people came to see that amazing vagrant. Realizing the number of people that share his interest\, He decided to start guiding professionally. He contributed to the book titled “A Birder’s Guide To Florida” by Bill Pranty. He wrote the chapter on Homestead and helped with the sections on Miami\, the Florida Keys\, and Everglades National Park. He co-authored “A Birder’s Guide To Metropolitan Areas of North America” by Paul Lehman and sold by American Birding Association.

SUMMARY:The Big Sit! at Peaceful Waters
DESCRIPTION:The Big Sit! was founded in 1992 by fun-loving members of the New Haven (Connecticut) Bird Club. In the early years\, The Big Sit! was held annually on the second Sunday in October. Because some Big Sit! participants were unable to Sit on Sundays\, The Big Sit! now includes the Saturday before the second Sunday.  \n\n\n\nThe Big Sit! is like a Big Day or a Bird-a-thon. Individuals or teams find as many species as possible in 24 hours. There is one critical difference – all observations must be made from within a circle no more than 17-foot diameter circle. \n\n\n\nJoin Linda McCandless & Al Pelligrinelli as they do they do The Big Sit under the pavilion from 7:30 am – 1130 am

SUMMARY:The Big Sit at Green Cay
DESCRIPTION:Come join us at Green Cay Nature Center and Wetlands on Saturday\, Oct. 8 to enjoy a day of birding and nature as part of Audubon Everglades resurrection of our annual Big Sit! Event. You can stop by and join the fun anytime between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. at the gazebo on the north/west side of the boardwalk. This is usually done while sitting\, visiting with fellow birders and relaxing! It’s a cool way to see how the bird activity changes throughout the day. The Gazebo will provide some relief from the sun\, and we will have water if you bring a refillable drinking container. \n\n\n\nThis is an accessible area for people with disabilities and is ideal for families. We will have extra binoculars available for both children and adults. There is enough room for approximately 10 people to comfortably be in the Gazebo at any given time. \n\n\n\nThe Big Sit! is an annual\, international\, non-competitive birding event sponsored by Birdwatchers Digest and founded by the New Haven (Connecticut) Bird Club. Some people have called it a “tailgate party for birders.” Within the gazebo\, we will create an imaginary circle 17 feet in diameter and count all the bird species we see or hear from the circle from 8am to 2pm. That’s it. Find a spot\, sit in it\, have fun. Then we will submit our findings. \n\n\n\nParticipants are allowed to come and go from the circle—especially for the purpose of bringing food or water back into the circle. There are Big Sit! circles all over the world\, including Guatemala\, India\, the Netherlands\, England\, Vietnam\, and New Zealand. \n\n\n\nPlease email me at scott@auduboneverglades and let me when you might be coming and approximately how long you plan to stay.
