This year, Melissa Fratello, David Robinson, and Erica Freese are teaming up for Birdathon, but in true introvert fashion, we will be birding owl by ourselves. Throughout the 30 days we will photograph as many bird species as we can, with added bonus photos of other critters we encounter. Our photos will be so im-peck-able that people won’t be able to stop raven about them. We'll nest our photos in this public Google Photos album: https://photos.app.goo.gl/WgjpKu8S8MGWzXiK7

If it’s not too much of a bird-en, please consider contributing! You have two ways to give, by making a flat donation or pledging. The pledges can come with specific challenges such as getting a photo of your favorite bird!

Thank you for your support. Now please carrion with your day!

Erica, Melissa, and David
