Hi! This is Kay, Margaret Augustine's daughter. I apologize if this isn't allowed on your listserve. We have tried to contact people for permission and haven't received responses and we are running out of time.
My brother and I are helping share out that Mom's downsizing online auction is now live. She has so enjoyed all her birding friends in MN but is now living in Iowa in a beautiful retirement community close to me. This auction thing is a new process for all of us and aren't exactly sure how to get the information to the right people. It ends on October 5th. We want to get the word out especially to people who would appreciate and be interested in the beautiful artwork and other items celebrating our feathered friends. We also have WWII flight memorabilia, vintage and antique items. If you know people who might be interested, please forward this email. It's a very short timeline and we are trying hard to make this successful for her. Click to see the site: sale/18118 (https://ctbids.com/estate-sale/18118) Thank you so much! Enjoy your birding. I saw a flicker today near my home in Iowa. I hadn't seen one for ages! -----Original Message----- From: Minnesota Birds <mou-net@lists.umn.edu></mou-net@lists.umn.edu> Sent: Sep 30, 2022 12:00 AM To: <mou-net@lists.umn.edu></mou-net@lists.umn.edu> Subject: MOU-NET Digest - 28 Sep 2022 to 29 Sep 2022 (#2022-160) There is 1 message totaling 31 lines in this issue.
