New Zealand Bird Rescue is different to other animal welfare organisations because we believe strongly that “every bird counts”. All birds in NZ are NZ Birds to us and we think that they all are deserving of a second chance at life. We are the largest bird rescue centre in NZ by the sheer volume of birds that come through our doors each year. No bird in need is turned away and annually we accept and care for between 4,000 and 5,000 birds.
We are a charity and we rely on donations to keep our hospital doors open each year. At times we operate under quite trying conditions with hundreds of mouths to feed, large vet bills to pay and operational costs like power and water – they all add up!
Dreams
Our day-to-day wish list consists of items such as kitten food, sprats, paper towels, tissues, bird seed, tinned baby food and chicken pellets however we have a much bigger wish list – our vision is to build a world class facility on the grounds of the Avonleigh Road property! The biggest avian hospital in New Zealand that will treat and care for all New Zealand birds.
This is a big dream for us and a dream for all of the birds of Auckland that need our help each year. A helping hand to us is a helping hand to them!
New Zealand is Bird Land. Our cities and forests are full of bird song. We care for all NZ Birds – help us help them.
