For the information of Ontario birders not members of the American
Birding Association here is an update on what that organization is doing
to cope with the oil spill.
The American Birding Association continues its work to support imperiled
birds and their habitats affected by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in
the Gulf of Mexico.
ABA members have a history of coming together, when there is a need to
help birds. As of noon, May 11, 2010, the ABA has received $9,727 in
donations from members and friends to its Gulf Coast fund.
Contributions to the Gulf Coast fund can be made at
www.aba.org/donate/gulf.php. If you live in the southern Louisiana area
and would like to volunteer your time and skills as a bird monitor,
please contact Elizabeth Wylie at 800-850-2473 x233 or [email protected].
For additional information, contact: Melissa Rausch, American Birding
Association, at 719-578-9703 x237 or [email protected].
