Tomorrow is a celebration of bird migration. Whether you are part of a team or a group,with friends or on your own, celebrate the fact that there are birds to enjoy. But they are enjoyable as long as we preserve their existence.
Two Brooklyn Bird Club teams are going out to raise funds in whatever amount. Whether you send a fix amount or per bird based on the teams total species account, you would be doing a great noble service for birding and birds. I will post the totals Saturday late eve or Sunday
This year , in the spirit of "Go Wild ,GO BIRDING" theme ( see http://www.birdday.org/) emphasizing young birders and beginner birders, the club is supporting the New York State Young Birders Club.
Here is the link to the donation form to send.Let me know your pledge amount ( don't send me the check). And be sure to note on the "specifics' line "BROOKLYN BIRD CLUB BIRDATHON"
