Thank you for displaying an interest in “Feathered Messages,” the Birds site’s newsletter!

This free newsletter is sent to you weekly and provides you with easy access to the most recent article that is being featured at the Birds site. That article may cover such topics as bird species, ethical ‘bird keeping,” choosing the right bird, behavior/psychology, “training,” safety tips, health and first aid, proper grooming, diet and nutrition, equipment and accessories, playthings, gifts, breeding and raising, aviaries, bird rescue tips/resources, birds from a historical perspective, book and product reviews, “bird keeping” around the world, and a focus of mine, the relationship of birds in the wild to those in captivity.

At times, I may be providing additional information to the subscribers of the newsletter that will not be available elsewhere. Moreover, if I write more than one article a week, you will be receiving an additional newsletter informing you about that “bonus” article. At any time, I welcome you to provide feedback about the articles or the newsletter itself.

My overall goal is to provide you with information, both personally anecdotal and factual that you will not be able to locate anywhere else at one place in such a format on the Internet. Most everything that is written by myself on the Birds site is based on my knowledge, research, experience, philosophy/beliefs, attitudes, and opinions that I hope will be a benefit to you both information-wise and entertainment-wise. Just like at the other site where I am BellaOnline’s editor, Mexico, my articles have a tendency to be quirky yet helpful or should that be helpful yet quirky?

The Birds site newsletter is sent out in text only format, so it's easy to read no matter what kind of system, cell phone or PDA you choose to receive it at.

Please rest assured that we will never spam you nor will your name ever be sold. Our BellaOnline databases are securely locked against outside intruders, and the names we take in for our mailing database are not used for any other purpose. The one, sole thing you will ever receive by signing up for this newsletter is the Birds site’s newsletter. As a personal note, prior to becoming the editor for the Mexico site, I subscribed to many of BellaOnline’s newsletters and never received any mailings that I had not requested. Moreover, you can quite easily unsubscribe at any time if you choose to - the link to do so is provided at the bottom of every newsletter we send out.
