Please vote for me, thank you.



Hi everyone, I hope you have enjoyed my page. My human thought it would be a good idea to let you all know that I have been nominated for Bird of the Year at the Bird TLC. What is Bird of the Year you ask? Well, my friends Crawford the Raven, Gus the Great Horned Owl and I are all campaigning for the honor. We all have special causes that we are sharing information about to help spread the word about.

I am campaigning on the Protection and good use of birding places in Alaska platform. I want to tell people about all the great places they can go and see all of my feathered friends and family. My favorite bird place outside of the Bird TLC is Potter Marsh, a really neat place to see all kinds of us bird types. If I am elected as Bird of the Year, I will encourage people to get out and enjoy all these great places in our great state. Also, I will urge people to continue to support good management of these areas for all of our human friends and wild types to enjoy.

Do you like stories? I sure do. My favorite stories are Eagle Release stories and I think my human really likes them to. My human tells me that the nice people at the Bird TLC have returned about 19 of my cousins back to the wild this year with some of them at my favorite place, Potter Marsh. This is where the Bird TLC is trying to get a new place for me and my friends who live there and all of our friends and family in treatment to live. It sure sounds like a nice place, I hope we can move in soon. I hope you can come out and see one of my cousins get to go back to the wild.

Every $5 donation will get me or my friends one vote. Now don't think we are just in this to get your money. The people at the Bird TLC are what the humans call volunteers and I hear them talking about needing donations to keep things running smooth. They see a lot of different kinds of us birds every year, I heard them say between 600 and 800 birds. WOW, that is a lot of us. They also say they want to know what is important to the other humans out there about the mission here at the Bird TLC.

Thank you for stopping by to see what I have been up to lately and don't forget....Vote for PETRA for Bird of the Year. If you need more information, contact the Bird TLC at 562-4850. The nice people there will be happy to give you more details on how to cast your vote. Thanks again and see you here soon.
