Native Bird Rescue

Please handle birds with care and do not use force around their bodies when picking them up. You can gently place a towel over the bird and gently scoop them up and put them in a cardboard box with holes punched in the box for ventilation.

Baby birds will need to be kept warm

Caring for our native birds is a great way to introduce you to wildlife care. All our animals deserve a happy life. Birds come into care for many reasons most are due to animal attacks, fishing line entanglement, flying into glass windows, babies being separated from their mothers’ or there is an underlying sickness 

Not all birds you see on the ground are in need of rescue

Baby birds often fall from the nest learning to fly, their parents are normally somewhere close watching them get their wings, please let them be and don’t disturb them

If you find a bird that looks in distress please contact us on our rescue hotline
