I am so happy to be a supporter of the WBF. They are the only place to take injured wild birds in NYC, and they seem to just excel at the seemingly almost impossible task of treating as many patients as do in such limited quarters. They are life savers for so many, as well as advocating for bird friendly laws, and providing much needed education on our cities wildlife.

I found a wedding dove who was released and lost near my home in Inwood (UWS). The Wild Bird Fund helped me to rehabilitate my bird and I adopted her. Ariel has been a wonderful companion for the past 2 years. Recently, I have found other wedding doves who also were diorientated and unable to survive without food. I have been adopting and releasing them. Thank you.
