| BIRDS-I-VIEW is committed to providing products and information that benefit wildlife, Birds-I-View’s product line and educational services are based on Steve’s more than 30 years of experience in retailing Wildlife and Wild Bird products. Steve opened his retail store in 1978 and Regina has been assisting him since the mid 80's! The Garrs are very supportive (and appreciative!) of Missouri Conservation. While it is not possible to donate to every worthy cause, Birds-I-View makes it a part of our business plan to contribute financially as much as possible to Conservation causes in Missouri. For instance, Birds-I-View has contributed to and supported the work by Jim Rathert to develop a Wild Bird Garden in Memorial Park in Jefferson City, MO. Each October Birds-I-View hosts a "Big Sit Bird Count" in Memorial Park to raise funds for the garden, in addition to the support they provide independently. Steve is a Life Member of the North American Bluebird Society and Birds-I-View is proud to be a "Corporate Member" of that organization. Steve is a past President , former Vice-president, and a past member of the Board of Directors of NABS. The Garrs are also co-founders of two separate State Bluebird Societies. Steve is the President of the Missouri Bluebird Society and Regina is the Society's secretary as well as the Newsletter Editor. Steve & Regina are Life Members of the Hummer/Bird Study Group and enthusiastic supporters of that fine organization. Much of Steve experience in banding Hummingbirds ( particularly "Wintering Hummingbirds') has been in conjunction with HBSG. Please visit their website at : www.hummingbirdsplus.org. They are also proud members of the River Bluffs Audubon Society in Jefferson City , MO and are grateful for the MANY good works this organization does! Each year, Birds-I-View hosts a "DONATION DAYS" Sale in which they donate 10 % of all their sales over a two day period to this local Audubon Chapter. Additionally, Birds-I-View sponsors a "Seed Sale" annually to allow birders to "book" their bird seed and purchase it at considerable savings , while donating 10% of the sales to River Bluffs Audubon Society.
