Today is a day to celebrate generosity – Giving Tuesday. We want to thank all of you who have already donated to Hatch a Hundred or signed up for Adopt an Owl. Without your donations, our research couldn’t happen. Over the last year, we’ve managed to band hundreds of Northern Saw-Whet Owls and songbirds as well as track the movements of Long-eared Owls to their nesting grounds in the Canadian boreal forests and back using GPS trackers. You’re helping us make a difference!
Giving Tuesday – 2024
Today, we’re focused on an exciting goal: Partnering with FoHVOS to hatch one hundred American Kestrels. Donate today and help us “Hatch a Hundred” for the American Kestrel! Below, you’ll learn how your impact gets us to our goal.
Prefer to support us in a different way? There are other ways to support our research like:
1) Purchase a calendar – Starting at $25
The 2025 edition of our annual calendar is now available! This 12-month wall calendar features portraits of birds that were measured, banded, and released during our research projects. This year’s species include Mourning Warbler, Blue Jay, Ruby-crowned Kinglet, and more.
2) Adopt an Owl – Starting at $30
By symbolically adopting an owl for yourself or as a gift, you’ll be playing a vital role in advancing our understanding of Northern Saw-whet Owls and their incredible journeys across North America. You (or a designated recipient) will receive an official adoption certificate, a photo of the owl, its band number, and its original encounter data.
3) Buy some WBRG Merch – Starting at $30
Display your support for Wild Bird Research Group with our branded tees, hoodies, hats, mugs, totes, and more. All proceeds from our shop sales go directly back to our work to conduct research that benefits birds and their habitats in the Americas. (And many of these items make excellent gifts for the bird lovers and conservationists in your life!)
