$0/moFreeHiddenPatron count not public
$1/moNavinHiddenThe first rescue I ever had was an American Robin named Navin. (The neighbor boy whom I had a crush on at the time suggested the name.) This tier is for the "good feels" of doing a great thing--a feeling I get every time I am able to release something back into the wild where it belongs.
$2/moGoo BirdHiddenThis is Goo Bird...named for her messy eating habits. As a chick, she had a personality that wouldn't quit. This was how she spent most winter mornings, feathers slightly puffed, neck outstretched, basking in the feeble sun. She stayed with me for quite some time and will forever be in my heart. With this tier you get all the "good feels" PLUS access to Patreon-only content and a chance to win prizes...because everyone loves prizes!
$10/moDexter the Turkey VultureHiddenIt's a commitment, doing wildlife rehab. I learned this the day I picked up a turkey vulture and headed out for a 3 hour drive to Badger Run. He vomited 10 mins in to the drive. Because that is the type of smell you peel off the roof of your mouth three days later, you deserve a great reward: Everything from Tier 1 & 2 PLUS 10% off Etsy all of the time, and for in-person sales too ( excluding original artwork )
At the end of each year expect a special care package valued at $120 of some seriously neat hand crafted goodies.
$15/moViolet Green SwallowHiddenI once rehabbed a tiny, stunningly beautiful swallow. Its likeness perches on the tea cup in my logo. Release days are always the best days, and the day I watched her fly off--best of the best. They are so delicate. It's like holding nothing but a heartbeat in your hand. Included in this Tier is everything from 1 & 2 & 3, PLUS the added bonus of not being associated with turkey vulture vomit (kidding!).
Your end of the year package will be valued at $180 or more!
$25/moSpotted OwlHiddenI got a call for a pick-up for a Spotted Owl just outside of Phoenix. I hung up the phone and expected to see a misidentified Barred Owl when I arrived on scene. I was shocked to find that it was indeed a Spotted Owl, the first I had ever seen. He was by far the most beautiful owl I have ever held. He had what seemed like tiny constellations dotting his body. It was an honor to work with this bird. This Tier includes everything from the previous tiers but your end of year care package will be valued at $300 plus!
$50/moCaro - The Coopers HawkHidden"We have a bird for you in Jail." This is when I should have realized things would go south. A Coopers Hawk had slammed into the jail building in downtown Medford and knocked himself out. It likely didn't see the building behind the pigeon it wanted for lunch. I carefully placed the unconscious bird into a box and booked it home for an assessment. I pulled back the lid and like lightning the little bugger shot one long leg down my glove and sunk three talons into my wrist like it was made of butter. The nurse in urgent care was gleeful as he wrote down the reason for my visit: "raptor attack."
This Tier includes everything from previous tiers plus your year end care package valued at $600 plus!
