DONATIONS & SPONSORS
GO FUND ME
Birds rely on native habitats for food and shelter. An education outreach depends on the community. If you are interested in supporting this citizen initative, please consider a donation to the GoFund account.
And, if you want to watch the bird migration check radar website BIRD TRACK – it tracks their movements spring and fall. BOLA – Be on the lookout for speeding birds on their migration highway in the sky.
EVENTBRITE EVENTS
This project (like many) is a work in progress. I have been offering talks at local groups and libraries. The feedback is that the public needs more detailed information to install a bird garden aka Food Truck for Birds at their property. In response, I am offering personal consultations at the local coffee shop to help you with your yards. Please click to the Eventbright page to sign up. If you need a different time, please call to set up one for your schedule. A bit of homework is required to make the most use of your time.
BIRD TALK TOURS
The next Bird Talk Tours ’25 is in progress. The winter portion will include South Florida and the Florida Keys. The libraries are keen to ask Tricia to return as well as local groups. She needs set up equipment, fliers, and travel expenses. If you would like to donate to the cause, Tricia will offer you her time, to help you build your own bird gardens aka Food Trucks for Birds.
BIRD BOOK
Tricia is in the process of writing a Food Trucks for Birds – the migration highway book. It’s a story with references for building your own bird gardens and why it’s important. A KickStarter page has been started but not completed just yet. You’ll find Tricia attending the Destin Florida Library Writer’s Group working on the chapters. More to come soon.
WISH LIST
NON-PROFIT SET UP
Tricia has already paid for the fictitious name and the website hosting and domain name. The next steps are to file the official paperwork for the non-profit and word mark (copyright) the name and logo. If you are a lawyer who loves and believes in birds, please contact Tricia if you can donate a few hours to set up this next phase of the project.
SOFTWARE ASSISTANCE
Tricia did the programing for the website on her own time and dime. There are a few more features she would like to add that are beyond her expertise. If you know how to use Divi and WordPress and would like to donate a few hours of your time, please contact Tricia for more details. It would be nice to have an “app for that” version of Food Trucks for Birds in the future.
EQUIPMENT
For the first Bird Talk Tour ’22, I dug deep into my pockets and paid all of the expenses. It was a risk but the feedback was awesome. I did talks at the Homestead and Florida Keys Libraries.
This time around I would like to purchase a tent, signage, and more printed materials to distribute to the public. If you would like to help a worthy cause, please consider attending the Bird Talks and make a donation.
Tricia also needs to purchase signage for the people who “register” their food trucks too.
BUSINESS SPONSOR
Do you love birds? Want to show people you love them too? Consider being a business sponsor and donate time or a few bucks to help Tricia spread her wings and fly on the migration highway to teach the community about how we can truly help these amazing little animals.
If you are an architect and would like to doante a construction drawing for a bird feeder, please let us know.
GO FUND ME
Tricia would love to turn this project into a US Highway “migration highway” rest stop journey for the birds. If you can donate time or money, please click on the link above to the GoFund Me page. Stay tuned for the next Bird Talk Tour events in your areas.
The feedback from the community is that they would like a more personal sit down consult with Tricia to install their bird gardens. In response, Tricia has set up an Event Brite page to meet with people one on one at the local coffee shop. Stay tuned for more events.
