Welcome to June 2024, Friends!
We’re trying a new format where no matter what platform you consume your content on, you can see, at a glance, what we’re up to. Here, you’ll find our wishlists for the month, all the birds who come in and go out, the projects we’re working on, any events we do, and then we’ll also be putting your “Ask The Birdbitch” questions and answers in here as well so that we can collect them and you don’t have to wade through months and months of social media to find things.
You can always find the month we’re on located in the navigation under the heading “This Month” and we’ll leave all months up, and just create a new page every month.
Let us know how you love this format. We feel like it’s easier to keep track of in the chaos than to try to think back over the month and write you a newsletter. This is a living, breathing page that will be updated probably several times per week.
We love you all, and are excited for a new way to keep you abreast of what’s going down at Birds and Beaks.
Hope you love it,
Shannon
