The City of Calgary in 2022 designated the Black Capped Chickadee as the Official Bird of Calgary, which prompted us to make and donate this panel which measures about 13 inches in diameter. with a 1/2 inch zinc frame.
We donated this panel to The Wild Bird Store located at 5901-3rd St. SE, Calgary Alberta. Their plan is to auction off the panel for the stores anniversary which will be on Saturday September 30, 2023.
They intend on selling tickets and will start advertising this in their August and September newsletters to get people excited about the event. All of the proceeds will be split between Calgary Wildlife Rehabilitation Society and Alberta Institute for Wildlife Recovery. These are very worth while causes and we hope that the results from ticket sales will benefit their organizations.
The Wild Bird Store also sells other stained glass birds, butterflies and night lights that we supply to them.
