Florida Exotic Bird Sanctuary

We are very happy to announce the New African Grey flight is complete and 26 Greys are now loving their larger, beautiful flight. Many thanks to all of the people that donated to the expense of putting this together and all of the volunteers and staff that worked hard to give these wonderful birds this state of the art aviary fully equipped with water, electric, shelter, safe toys, boings, perches and plenty of food and water stations. We are already working on the next flight cage with a double door system between two cages. Please help in any way you can as we need many more flights. Please be patient as we are working as fast as we can (finances and labor a huge factor) to get ALL of the birds in the new large flights! Please let us know if you can help lend a hand or help finance an aviary!

“We are excited to be named a Top-Rated 2015 Nonprofit,” says Patricia Norton. The Top-Rated Nonprofit award was based on the large number of positive reviews that Florida Exotic Bird Sanctuary received – reviews written by volunteers, donors and clients. People posted their personal experience with the nonprofit. While the Top-Rated Awards run through the end of October, FEBS was part of the inaugural group to qualify for the year. In addition, we’ll been added to GreatNonprofits #GivingTuesday Guide - an interactive guide to top nonprofits throughout the years. Look for this near the holidays.
“Savvy donors want to see the impact of their donations more than ever,” said Perla Ni, CEO of GreatNonprofits, “People with direct experience with Florida Exotic Bird Sanctuary have voted that the organization is making a real difference.”
Being on the Top-Rated list gives donors and volunteers more confidence that this is a credible organization. The reviews by volunteers, clients and other donors show the on-the-ground results of this nonprofit. This award is a form of recognition by the community.

FEBS finds perfect property for expansion… Here are some photos of our progress!

After a long two year search, FEBS and its flock have finally found the perfect property for our desperately needed expansion. More importantly, we will be able to give flight cages to ALL of the 600+ parrots in our care! We will also be able to help many more parrots and the families that are wanting nothing more than to have their parrots "Just be a bird!"

A project this massive is going to take lots of dedication and financial support! The Staff, Officers, Board Members, Members and Volunteers are committed to putting their all into the expansion and relocation of FEBS’ parrots in our Lifelong Care Facility.

So we ask all of you, our loyal supporters, to please consider helping in any way you can! Sponsoring a flight cage is a really helpful part of the bigger vision and we really need you guys, the bird families and friends of our flock!

Please consider that this project will cost an estimated $500,000! In the last year of acquiring this new property we have come a long way through the help of many of our devoted members and owners of the parrots – not to mention the endless hours of volunteer work from our Board of Directors, volunteers, their families and anyone that could help us with this massive project. We and the birds are eternally grateful for all of your help

We still have along way to go so if you have a free weekend or some time that you would like to come work with us, please contact us and we can make arrangements for your stay, and put you to work! It is a very fulfilling job that will leave you with a great sense of pride that you helped these parrots in such an awesome way!

If you or a business that you work for are able to help or if you know of anyone who may be able to help FEBS please contact Patricia Norton (A.K.A. "Birdmother") toll free: 1-844-352-2473, ext 1, and we can schedule dates that we will be putting teams together to help. If you have not already, please join our blog also, we will be posting working dates there are well!

If you would like to help but just can't get away to Florida, supplies are very much needed, especially cage wire and hardware. Simply click on the Big Blue Feather to the right to donate (tax deductible) funds toward this very important project!
