Caring for and advocating for alaska’s wild birds through rehabilitation, Education, and outreach to ensure they remain a vital part of Alaska’s iconic landscapes.

If you’ve found a bird that may be injured, ill, or orphaned, we can help!

Our Impact

Rescue and Rehabilitation

Time flies when you're busy! At the end of May, 82 patients had been admitted to the clinic. After the busy summer, the number of patients has risen to 470. 

Thanks to the care and dedication of rehabilitation staff and volunteers, numerous songbirds and raptors have gotten a second chance at life in the wild. Plus, 64 orphaned waterbirds, from gulls to gadwalls, are back in the wild thanks to the care of our rehabilitation staff and volunteers.  

Education and Outreach

Congratulations to the 19 Avian Teen Crew members who gave their time this summer to be part of our education team. They cleaned Ambassador Bird housing, made bird enrichment, supported presenters at public programs, and completed service projects to benefit Bird TLC. They were an awesome group of young adults to spend the summer with! 2027 applications will open up in April.

We've hosted over 400 tourists this summer, with more still to come! We love introducing visitors to Alaska's wild birds and introducing them to an Ambassador Bird or two.
