Summer 2005: RAPTOR, Inc.
RAPTOR is a volunteer organization in the Cincinnati area dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, and eventual release of injured or orphaned birds of prey. Wild About Birds has been involved with RAPTOR for many years. During business hours, while RAPTOR volunteers are at their “real” jobs, Wild About Birds’ staff members take phone calls that are routed into the shop reporting these injured birds of prey; we maintain a list of “bird pick-up” volunteers and dispatch them to the caller’s location. RAPTOR recently purchased property adjacent to the Cincinnati Nature Center in Milford. The generous customers of Wild About Birds turned in almost 100 used feeders that we cleaned and repaired. During our annual Summer Clearance Sale, August 5-7 our customers came through again and bought back these reconditioned feeders, donating about $500 to RAPTOR. We were happy to match our customer’s contribution in support of RAPTOR’s expansion in Milford and sent a check to RAPTOR, Inc. in the amount of $1000! David Tenant, RAPTOR's Director of Education, made a presentation the morning of our weekend sale and brought along a few friends - a barred owl, a peregrine falcon, and a red-tail hawk!

During the summer of 2005 we put out the call to our customers for used birdfeeders that we could fix-up, clean and re-sell for a fund raiser for RAPTOR, Inc.
During the spring of 2005 Wild About Birds expanded into the vacant space next door - we doubled the size of the shop! We celebrated our expansion with a "Grand Re-opening Sale -abration" on Saturday June 18th. It was a great party!!
