Hello
You know how much you enjoy watching birds. But have you thought about sharing
that enjoyment with someone new to birding? Now you can with Pledge to Fledge!
Pledge to Fledge (P2F) is an international grassroots campaign to introduce
friends and acquaintances to pleasure of watching wild birds. It is a terrific
opportunity to share your love for birding with others, and to help people
discover the allure of birds while connecting with the natural world around
them.
P2F is designed to help birders effectively enthuse their non-birding friends
into becoming a casual birdwatcher, and then, ideally, into someone concerned
about bird conservation and the environment. YOU have the capacity to enhance
the lives of birds and people alike – simply by sharing your own enthusiasm for
birds!
You can join us and the international grassroots birding movement by
registering your personal “Pledge to Fledge” online today! All you are pledging
is your time and commitment to share birds with others in order to fuel their
curiosity and awareness of the natural world around them. It’s all free!
The P2F Campaign encourages birders like you to nurture an interest in birds in
others. The goal is to provide our budding new birdwatcher(s) with on-going
support as they develop their own appreciation for birds.
We need your help to make P2F a success.
Please be a part of P2F and make your “Pledge to Fledge” a new birder TODAY!
Just click on the following link and it will take you straight to the Pledge:

But please don’t stop there. You are just the person to take an active role in
P2F by helping to ‘fledge’ a new birder near you – a friend, a relative,
perhaps a group that you’re already involved with – by taking them out birding
with you and sharing the wonderful wildlife experience you already enjoy. You
could be an important part of a global initiative to share birds with others.
On 24th – 26th August 2012, birders across six continents will inspire a
broader public appreciation for birds by taking friends and other non-birders
out to truly see and enjoy birds for the first time. These birders will share
their efforts with the world through photos, videos, and stories on the Pledge
to Fledge website and social media channels.
If you can take someone out birding that weekend, it would be brilliant to be a
part of this global birdwatching event.
We want as many people as possible to be involved in P2F, so please let us know
if you’re able to help ‘fledge’ a new birder at any time. If you’d like any
more information about P2F or want to discuss ideas about an event you could
hold in your area, then please contact through the site or me.
We look forward to seeing you in the field with some newbies:-)
Best wishes and good birding!
Alan
