Wildlife in Need
What do our birds eat?
We've got lots of hungry mouths and beaks to feed and we rely 100% on food donations.
Surprisingly, some of the main foods loved by all the birds are live mealworms and waxworms which are are especially good for tiny fledglings and sick birds who can't swallow much. Another popular food for small and garden birds is called Orlux Uni Patee, while the seagulls and marine birds love gulping down tons of sprats and fish.

Our Amazon Wish List is a great way to donate.
We always need mealworms and waxworms
Greedy seabirds gobble fish. We get through copious amounts of pigeon grain and duck pellets.

Quick ways to help
Click the GoFundMe logo to donate
We use our gofundme account to save up for special projects, like putting money onto account for vet bills and for new aviaries which need ongoing rain and vermin-proofing and other regular maintenance. We need substantial sums to pay for bedding (straw) and specialist live food like mealworms for songbirds and fish for gulls.
