I guess you don't invite other birders to join you on your Big bucket Sit.

Subject: [MDOSPREY] Jug Bay Big Sit


I did my 8th annual Big Sit from my bucket overlooking the southern end of 
Jug Bay. My total was 65 species during 5 hrs and 45 min in scattered hour 
and half hour sits. Big surprise was a GNATCATCHER. Two other new species 
for my cumulative list were BLUE-WINGED TEAL and SWAINSON'S THRUSH (heard 
pre-dawn, along with WILSON'S SNIPE and GRAY-CHEEKED THRUSH). Cumulative 
list now at 111. Enjoyable was the constant chatter of RED-HEADED 
WOODPECKERS and watching the antics of a large flock of SHOVELERS. First 
time misses were HERRING GULL and FORSTER'S TERN.
