In the news

We have been in the news a lot lately.   It seems to come in bunches.   Last year (2011) we had no actual news articles, the year before we had several.  2010 we had articles about our possible location in Apex, and some news articles about  some of our rescues.  In 2009 we had very few if any articles.  2008 we had several articles about rescues and our organization in general.

This year  has started a new bunch of articles.  People seem to forget we are here  until they rediscover us every 2nd year.  This year, we have been mostly in the news this month.   We have been in a blog called " the Raleigh Raptors"  It is a photo book background blog for  a family of Raptors in downtown Raleigh NC ( http://opienc.wordpress.com/ )  We had an article and photos in the Wilson NC paper from our show at the Wilson county library.  Over 250 people attended that show. (WIlson times  "Who's in the library" last week)  We were also interviewed and had photos taken of our show at the Eva Perry Library in Apex NC by a Cary magazine.  The magazine says we will be in  a feature on animal education groups in the area.   We will be featured with 2 other groups.

Once again, we have garnered attention.   It is a good thing since we do not advertise.   Stories like this help get us  shows, and more shows mean more money to help the birds.
