October donation

I have split up this month’s charity donation. One part went to the Center for Disaster Philanthropy to help their efforts with Covid-19 relief, the other part went to the Wildlife Conservation Society in honor and memory of a good friend and wildlife lover.

(I have yet to decide on a new charity. Feeding America has sold my data, so I am currently getting swamped with (mostly political) charity requests, and while I generally love what they do, this has left a bitter taste. If you know of a worthy cause, feel free to email or message me.)

Mask profit donations starting August 1st

I have decided to donate all mask profits starting from today throughout the month of August to Feeding America again. All mask profits from July 1st to August 1st will be donated to the Native American Rights Fund on the 15th when I receive the money from Redbubble. You have been very generous so far, thank you for that. Stay safe, wear a mask and help a good cause, even if you just share the link. The masks can be purchased right at ostdrossel.com or at my Redbubble shop, ostdrossel.redbubble.com. There, you can also find stickers and other things if you want to contribute to the bird food budget :)

We did it!

Thanks to your generosity, Feeding America will be able to provide 9790 meals to people in need. THANK YOU SO MUCH, this has been an absolutely wonderful experience during these wild times. ⁠
The masks will continue to be available, and I will continue to donate the profits received from them. Until further notice, also future donations will be made to Feeding America.⁠
If you don't have a mask but would like one and support the cause, go choose your favorite now on ostdrossel.com or at my Redbubble shop.

(For this first donation, I used all profits from my Redbubble shop including from stickers and other things, that added up from the Redbubble payments from the last two months, and we rounded the sum up.)⁠

Today is a great day.

Kudos, birdlovers.

I checked my Redbubble shop today, and mask sales have amounted to $902.30! This is impressive and stunning and makes me so proud. I will get paid by Redbubble on the 15th, and will make the donation to Feeding America right away. If you want to make this a round number, go and get yourself a mask too. I linked them on here, or you can go to my Redbubble shop ostdrossel.redbubble.com.

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH, YOU ROCK!

I hope

you all had a great first of May. The weather was glorious here! Anyways, I have been very busy, so I did not have a lot of time to go through photos. But the cameras are out, and hopefully tonight I will have a couple. To hold you over, here is a Black-capped Chickadee.

I also would like to thank all of you who ordered masks so far. You have been STELLAR, and profits from the masks are nearing 400 Dollars so far. It looks like I will be donating the profits to Feeding America. Redbubble pays in monthly intervalls, so there is still plenty of time to get a mask and help the cause. If you have wishes for color combos or motifs , let me know. I will try to add links to ostdrossel.com as well, so they can be found easier.

Thank you all, and have a beautiful Saturday (I can’t even tell what day it is anymore, oh boy)!
