We Have Won the Lemmy.World LemmySilver Event!

Thanks to the massive participation by you all last month, we took an early lead and did not let up! We have secured a nice donation from the .World admin team, and they have sent confirmation of a donation to me for the wild animal rescue that I volunteer for, Aark Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center.

The Aark was founded in 1979, and has become one of Pennsylvania's largest wild rehabs, treating around 5000 animals each year. Spending time with you all here on Superbowl has lead me to join them to help with this wonderful (but also hectic and chaotic, usually in a fun way) experience. They also have a broad collection of unreleasable educational animals, including a beautiful Great Horned Owl and a pair of Screech Owls that I hope to someday get to work with.

This prize joins my previous contributions made in the name of the community for the 2 previous Owl of the Year competitions to help conduct this important work! Thank you all for your contributions!

Note: The coin in the post is an edit of one from the Canadian Mint.

They have a bunch of neat coins with owls, if you are into that sort of thing.

Northern Lights coin

Glow in the Dark Eyes coin

And many more!

Lots of other countries have great owl coins as well, of course. Everyone loves an owl after all!
