ALL VISITS MUST BE SCHEDULED IN ADVANCE
We are not open to the general public
and are open by appointment only.
Choose below what you hope to accomplish to plan the best way to visit the rescue.
Adoption, Volunteering, Tours and more
What you are hoping to do and experience will determine how you should best plan to go about visiting the rescue.
***All visitors must sign a liability waiver and go through our basic “Rescue Do’s and Don’ts” training for interaction with the animals.
IF YOU’D ULTIMATELY LIKE TO ADOPT….
If you hope to adopt, you must go through the adoption process before being invited to the rescue. We don’t want to waste your time, nor ours - and as such - you must be approved for adoption to be able to interact with birds with the intention of adoption.
The process isn’t nearly as scary as most think, and is usually a fairly quick process.
Visitors who show up without completing the application process first, unannounced and without scheduling may be disappointed if we don’t have staff available to give tours, or if we’re already booked doing something else.
IF YOU WANT TO VOLUNTEER…
Volunteers are scheduled in advance to do specific jobs every week. Jobs like feeding, watering, sweeping/mopping, cleaning cages, washing or making toys and so much more.
We would LOVE for you to come hang out with us, and help us perform the daily tasks that are critical to the mission for the birds every day.
We do allow volunteers to hang with birds but AFTER all chores are finished.
Minors need to be pre-approved, and have parental consent signed in person.
IF YOU WANT TO VISIT THE RESCUE AND TAKE A TOUR…
If you’d just like to see what the rescue is like, but not have to feed, water, sweep or do other chores, we are happy to set up a tour for you.
Tours include a staff guide to walk through with you and your party, tell you about the birds and their stories, and show you the facility and what we do.
Tours do not include handling of birds, but you can take pictures and selfies with birds on stands.
Tours must be scheduled in advance and are $10.00/person.
Unscheduled visitors will likely be turned away. We hope you understand it’s not personal - it’s a staffing issue. We are not funded for staff and the humans who are here are already scheduled to do specific jobs and tasks, and if we don’t know you’re coming, it pulls our team away from what we’re supposed to be doing to pay attention to you.
We hope you understand, we’re here for the birds. So schedule appropriately to visit, please! :)
