Birds for Birds

Following the success of the 2011 Puppy Love charity calendar
www.PuppyLove.ie, the idea was hatched to
create something similar to raise some much needed funds for Woodlands
Falconry. 
“Birds for Birds” is a fundraiser in aid of Woodlands Falconry and Bird of Prey
Centre to help them continue their good work. Woodlands Falconry and Bird of Prey Centre houses a large variety of raptors, which cost over a hundred euro a week to feed and maintain. The centre is run
mainly by voluntary help and generally takes in enough profit weekly to cover
the cost of their bills and specialised raptor food, but bad weather conditions as
well as the rehabilitation work they do for wild injured Birds of Prey has drawn
heavily on available resources.
So the organizers of Birds for Birds Calender asked talented fashion photographer Maik Sinkovec to submit a month for the charity so i joined him in beautiful Co.Wicklow to provide hair for the shot.  Joined by the beautiful Maja Stina also the brains behind Burning Violet Latex Clothing the shot really came together, but you wont see it here, you will have to go out and get a copy of the calender when it hits newsstands soon...
