This is Bird Note.

As the American Robin marks the arrival of spring, we at Bird Note are asking you, our listeners, to support the show this week with a donation at birdnote.org.

As a public radio listener, you know how much your local station relies on people like you

to raise the money they need to continue serving your community.

Birdnote is an independent nonprofit that provides daily shows for free to public radio stations,

regardless of size, so that all listeners can share in the joy and wonder of birds.

This means that we also rely on individual gifts to continue producing and sharing our daily show with your local station.

We keep our pledge drives short and sweet.

In fact, in less than 43 seconds, we'll be done asking you.

So we hope you'll take a moment now to donate at burtnote.org.

If Bertnote has inspired you or helped you learn about the natural world, please visit burntnote.org and support the show.

For 20 years, Bertnote has shared the joy and wonder of birds with millions of people.

Help us continue this work by donating now at birdnote.org.

From all of us at Birdnote, thank you.
