REHABILITATION

We have 8 dedicated aviaries set up at our base, to receive injured wild birds of prey, in need of some temporary care.

The birds are brought to us for a variety of reasons, such as injuries from flying into windows or being hit by cars, but by far the most common reason is a young bird of prey that cannot fend for itself through the winter. The birds are brought to us by members of the public, vets and the RSPCA.

We are able to deal with most of the common injuries ourselves but those birds which need special or surgical attention are taken to a specialist avian vet.

Over the years we have successfully rehabilitated many birds, including Kestrels, Peregrines, Buzzards, Sparrowhawks, Tawny Owls, Barn Owls, and Little Owls.

By law, these wild birds are not allowed on display to the public. They are kept at our base and are not part of our experiences or displays. When they are fit and healthy, they are returned to the wild as soon as possible.

ALL OF OUR REHAB AVIARIES ARE FULL. WE ARE CURRENTLY UNABLE TO TAKE IN ANY MORE BIRDS. PLEASE INSTEAD CONTACT A LOCAL VETERINARIAN.
