Today is officially #BirdDay and we're celebrating Today is officially #BirdDay and we're celebrating our wonderful aviary residents! Many of the birds at our sanctuary were previously kept as pets...but now they are able to use our spacious aviary which gives them room to fly and express their wild behaviors. Some of our longtime aviary residents include a five-and-a half foot tall Sarus crane, Nicabar pigeon, ibis, cockatiels, love birds, conures and blue and gold macaws! Learn more about them and see how you can sponsor a bird today on our website. 🦜 ❤️
