​Join me, Elise Wolf of Native Bird Care Avian Rescue, as we explore the diverse journeys of some of our local bird youth. Baby birds are endearing, their cuteness and antics bring smiles to our faces. From hatchling to their final launch as fledglings, each species is unique in their development, challenges, and paths to adulthood. Plan on lots of photos and video of our precious avian young. I will also have answers to some common baby season questions and yard tips.

Native Bird Care is a wildlife rescue in Central Oregon specializing in wild birds. We offer specialized rescue services and care for all wild birds, especially songbirds, shorebirds, and waterbirds. Native Bird Care rescues both wild baby birds and adults. We care for all injured and hurt birds, except for raptors and owls.  

100% of donations go toward our patients' care, food, and housing. Please support our work with a donation today.
 

This is our 13th year of caring for wild birds. 
Our 100% volunteer staff work thousands of hours each year saving birds that would otherwise perish. These birds are often not even a species people know about. Yet, their lives bring joy and beauty to the world, and their ecological contributions cannot be replaced. 

We also offer the general public ideas and ways to live with our flighted neighbors. From solutions to home damage to how to save a bird from hitting a window, our website has a lot of information about birds.

Every dollar of your donation goes toward patient care here at Native Bird Care. We have no paid staff, but our patient costs are high. We depend on community support to care for our precious patients.

Please make a tax-deductible contribution today toward the rescue and care of the extraordinary birds that bring beauty and joy to all Central Oregonians.

How Can You Help?

Birds need our yards for nesting, habitat, and foraging for food. We can support our beautiful avian neighbors by offering appropropriate habitat and safety.

Nests & Babies: We will never see most of birds' nests as they excel at hiding. But, eventually the babies must leave the nest. Some birds must learn to find food on the ground - they are ground-feeders. These include all of the doves, juncos, and the infamous robin who cheers us up during the spring with its lovely call. Baby birds on the ground are not always normal however, specially if they have no feathers, have tiny tails (nestlings), and have experienced an event of some sort (weather, predators, accidental mishaps by humans). Most healthy baby birds are never on the ground. Contact us if you see a baby bird in peril. 


Windows: It is easy to help our flighted friends with some simple solutions. If you've ever been heart broken at the sound of a thud on window, check out our many options and ideas on our window solutions page. If you have a beloved kitty you know loves being outside, set up a fun catio gym (internet search catio for cool ideas). This is a fun kids project too. And if those pesky woodies are banging on your home, check out our harmless solutions on our Living With.

Have to Have a Habitat!: P
lanting native plants so our birds have recognizable foods and bugs is very helpful. In fact studies show that bird populations nose-dive when native plants are removed. Shrubs offer hiding places and our native shrubs (sage, bitter and rabbit brush) excel for bird food, housing, and hiding. Most birds eat bugs, so having healthy native plants and shrubs in our yards helps our birds with food. Not using pesticides and herbicides, keeping dogs on leash, and placing bird feeders in safe zones away from windows also makes a difference.

Information sheets are available for windows and bird feeder placement, just email us.

Enjoy our extraordinary birds!
