This is BirdNote. I'm Jessica Roo-France, the show's development director.

As we wrap up our week of fundraising episodes, I want to remind you that listener support is what makes this show possible. You can donate now at Birdnote.org.

One of my favorite things about working at Bird Note is the genuine response I get when meeting our listeners.

Usually, oh my gosh, I love Bird Note. And then having the opportunity to talk to them about the work we do.

Our team of writers, scientists, narrators, and producers works hard to bring you inspiring stories every day.

So when we hear someone say,

Oh, I love Bird Note.

It's music to our ears.

Birdnote storytelling is so powerful because it comes from a deep love of birds

and our belief that when you love something,

you feel moved to protect it. Because you love BirdNote, we're asking you to support our work

at Birdnote.org. Just like how we love our backyard birds and take steps to help them thrive,

we hope you'll do the same for Bird Note.

Oh my God, I love Bird Note. You make the Bird Note Minute? I love Bird Note. I love Bird Note. Show your love

for birds and Bird Note by making a donation today at Birdnote.org.

Thank you for your support. I'm Jessica Roo-France.
