Fresh off the heels of a successful Indiegogo campaign, The Pelican Aviary Project is now underway at our San Francisco Bay center. Check out the progress!
Let's Build It
Three Snowy Egrets and a dozen Black-crowned Night Herons were saved after a rookery tree blew over in high winds at the Port of Los Angeles.
Every Baby Bird Matters
Estonia, Tasmania, South Africa, Argentina: It’s hard to keep track of the 200+ oil spill response efforts we’ve been a part of over the past four decades. So we’ve put it in geographic form.

We cannot begin to count the ways we appreciate our volunteers — but we can count the number of ducklings they care for each year! Find out what it's like to volunteer for International Bird Rescue.
Volunteer
This season, International Bird Rescue's Los Angeles center has received dozens of oiled Common Murres — victims of natural seepage off the Southern California coast. With your support, we've given many a second chance.
Watch
Duck food, safety goggles and feather dusters (which double as surrogate parents for our orphaned chicks) are just some of the many supplies our wildlife care centers need. Check out our Amazon.com Wish List for a fun way to give to the birds!

Each of the Brown Pelicans we release back to the wild have numbered plastic blue bands. If you encounter one, please help us track these birds by using our online reporting form.
Your generous donations will help us prepare for the next emergency, purchase food and medicine for each of our patients, and advance cutting edge research efforts in the field of aquatic bird rescue and rehabilitation.
International Bird Rescue provides a hand-picked team of professional emergency managers, wildlife rehabilitators, biologists and veterinarians to manage each aspect of a wildlife response.
We've partnered with Dawn to create new classroom lessons and home activities for more than 2 million students inspired to learn about wildlife. Join us!
