Date & Time: Saturday, October 11, 8:30am

Leader: Tom Moser, mosertd@gmail.com, 412-478-5513

Directions: From Murrysville, follow Rt. 22 east to New Alexandria and turn south (right) onto Rt. 981.  There are three access roads to the park from Rt. 981 between New Alexandria and Latrobe all well marked, the first beginning about a quarter mile from the Rt. 22 intersection.

Description: Join us for our all day Big Sit bird count from our single location on the left side of the marsh at Keystone S.P. Although members typically gather at around 8:30 a.m., we'd like to have 2-3 people present throughout the day from dawn until dusk.  Bring some baked goods, fruit, or nuts to share (not required).  Most members park in the beach parking lot and cross the road to our spot in the wetlands.  This is a day of birding from a sitting position where we let the birds come to us. It gets tougher every year to break the record.  Bring a folding chair if you plan on staying awhile to help us identify and count.
