If the winner also answers the Bonus question correctly, the prize is a $15 donation. This month’s contest will run through October 24th. Good Luck!

Winner Challenge for Charity September 2010
The September, 2010 Challenge for Charity has concluded and we have a winner! Larry Jordan of The Birder’s Report has won $10 for his local wildlife rehab, Shasta Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation. Larry recently toured the facility and wrote an excellent post about it, full of pictures and a couple of videos. If you want to see what goes on at Shasta, have a look! Now, for the answers…
Even as Fall is approaching, we’ve got one more month of pure summer for this September edition of Challenge for Charity. I hope you’ll take a moment to have a little fun and take your chance to win a donation to your favorite nature/wildlife/conservation non-profit.
I am especially excited to present this first photo, taken by a new friend I met on a nature trail. We enjoyed easy and fun conversation, and have stayed in touch as we both have gone on to more nature trekking.

Jason has chosen to let ME choose the charity! Thanks so much, Jason – you’re the best. I am delighted to send this check to Project Coyote, a wonderful organization that I am currently researching.

The October edition of the Birder’s Lounge ID Challenge has come to a close, and we have a winner! Tina Gilson was the first person to get the most number of correct answers (she scored 100%), and she also answered the bonus question correctly, for a total prize of $15 to the wildlife/nature/conservation charity of her choice. Tina has chosen the Warbler Woods Bird Sanctuary to receive this donation in her name. Way to go, Tina! There were two participants this time around, so if you think you don’t have a chance to win, go ahead and give it a try. Your chances may be better than you think.
