The threat to wild birds is real: Bird Flu, known to the scientific community as Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI), has emerged in 2022 as a serious and deadly threat to birds in a changing world.

We are so grateful for your support in 2022 that helped us give the best care to possible to our 3,400+ waterbird patients!
There’s no greater feeling as a wildlife professional than to see one of your former patients back in the is wild thriving – especially nearly 6 years later. A case in point is a Brown Pelican with blue band X39.
Join us on November 29 in taking action for the birds this holiday season. Together, we hope to raise $40,000 on Giving Tuesday to support waterbird rescue and rehabilitation.
