This year we’ve done a lot as a community - sharing all sorts of posts (good, bad, charity, and sad), and participating in @thegreatbirdiegames. Let us flock together one more time to wrap up this crazy year with Birblr’s (first) Secret Santa!

What is secret santa? “Secret Santa” is a gift exchange in which members of a group or community are randomly assigned a person to whom they anonymously give a gift. We will be looking for volunteers to help run certain aspects of the event, and yes- volunteers can still partake. 

What will we be exchanging? As decided prior by a survey that went around on my main blog (beakybirds), we will be exchanging bird toys, bird treats/food, bird-related human items, and bird-related custom art. If there is something you do not want, please make a note of it in your sign up sheet. If there is an item not listed above that you would like to send to your secret santa, contact us here to make sure it is appropriate. Thank you!

> [Maximum of $15.00 per Secret Santa!] > If you have any ideas, comments, questions, or concerns please e-mail birblrsecretsanta@gmail.com Important Things to Know: - You will be required to give us your address so your secret santa may send you and your feathered friend their gift! (If you cannot send your address, unfortunately you may not participate.) - All of the information gathered during this event is stored on a private document, on a private home computer run by @beakybirds. Once the event is over all provided details will be deleted permanently. 

Are you ready to become a part of Birblr’s First Secret Santa?
