yesssss!
i've finally got permission to help at the Wild Bird Center. it looks like pretty soon i can volunteer there!
the woman who runs the place had interns for a while, but they left earlier than she thought, so now she really needs people. she emailed the US Department of Fish and Wildlife, to the woman who's in charge of migratory bird permits, and asked if I could help out. i'll have to sign a waiver, but she said i could! wOOt!
anyway, i think my mom and i are driving over today to check it out. i've never been there, but my mom says they have tables and tables of little fledglings, as well as adult birds in big cages (but i think i'll just be feeding and cleaning the fledglings).
i'm not crazy about cleaning up baby bird poop, but it's good hours, and it'll help me get into college. :D
