Babies and Orphans

Every spring and summer we become inundated with literally hundreds of baby birds and animals that for one reason or another have lost their parent(s).

Our aim is always to return these to the wild once they are fully grown, healthy and able to fend for themselves. To achieve this each creature requires a specialised diet, two hourly or hourly feeding depending on the species, company of their own kind where possible, warmth and the feeling of security and most important contact with humans that is only absolutely essential.  This prevents them becoming tame and reliant on humans.

Once they are feeding themselves, they are then moved into bigger aviaries / enclosures where they always have somewhere to hide and contact with humans may be reduced.

How you could support these babies

Rearing orphans is a very time consuming and expensive task, if you would like to help by purchasing specialised food, sponsoring an incubator or donating money towards their rehabilitation please contact us for details our current requirements.
