I want to encourage you to consider using your BIGBY (Big Green Birding Year) or your personal “green big days” for fundraising to support your local bird-friendly non-profit organizations. Gary Prescott and some of his friends have been doing this in the UK for years – check out “The Biking Birder’s” blog here: http://bikingbirder2010.blogspot.com/.
Also, look at the Urban Ecology Center’s May 14 “Greenbirding Challenge” for ideas about how to organize your local birding community into a green fundraising force for good – http://urbanecologycenter.org/greenbirdingchallenge/index.html.
Yes, I’m still working on posting all those lists and results…!
