Yes — TY! I also absolutely loved (and maybe even used, but linked straight to your webpage) you take on class projects and interviews, cause bruh. 💀 I have never felt more seen.

@astrokatie.com Any ideas? Considering that I know you may probably have, or know people, who this happens to often?

It’s not that I wouldn’t want to personally mentor them, it’s just that my time is limited right now. I’m looking into getting a mentoring program started, but those things take time, especially while I wait for other already established programs who may want to partner on this.

Seeking Advice: I have tons of younger minorities (late elementary on) reach out to me to ask for mentoring advice on how to navigate and enter the field of wildlife. I’d like to maybe write an instructional book of some sort? Idk. What format or approach would you take with this?

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year, all that jazz. 🎷🎄 - Love, your favorite birder. 🐦🪶
