Mission Statement

At N.W. Bird Rescue: “To Rescue” is to bring any bird that is in a critical, life threatening situation or is in immediate need of assistance into a safe environment to be cared for by a knowledgeable and dedicated staff committed to improving the bird’s quality of life.

N.W. Bird Rescue is an avian welfare organization that provides for the complete physical, psychological and environmental well being of birds.

This involves temporary care for wild birds that are injured or in immediate danger and are in need of our services, so that they may be quickly be transported to a wildlife care center or returned to their natural habitat.

N.W. Bird Rescue’s primary activity is to provide sanctuary and care for all exotic parrots that are seeking a new home. Some parrots that are not suitable for adoption or placement are placed in foster care or will be placed in our sanctuary program.

Some individuals have specifically requested that their parrot remain in permanent sanctuary. All sanctuary birds receive the same high level of care as the birds available for adoption and foster care. Sanctuary birds are housed in species-specific rooms of our main facility and have access to outdoor flights, abundant enrichment, and psychological and environmental support on a daily basis.

Our Organization Rescues:

Birds in deplorable or acute conditions or in danger, whether found by the general public, brought to the facility, or picked up at the residence home. We assist law enforcement and animal control officers when needed. We primarily aid parrot owners who surrender their parrot because they are no longer able to provide an adequate environment for their parrot.
