Wings of Love Bird Haven

I found Wings of Love Bird Haven when I started my search to adopt a bird, and wanted to find a place that specialized in rescuing birds instead of breeding or selling them for a profit. Wings of Love was on Facebook, and I saw the pictures of the birds they adopted. Some of them came in with no feathers and miserable, but then a month or two later, they’d post an update photo, and the birds looked so amazing. When the birds would spend time at the Haven, their feathers would come back, and you could see the light shining in their eyes again.
Then I checked out their adoption policies. They do home visits, they have a lot of questions you have to answer before you can adopt, and they take this adoption stuff really seriously. I loved that! It means these precious birdies who will live a long, long time are going to have good forever homes, and hopefully it will be their last home! No more trauma, no more sadness, no more neglect or abuse.
We were so lucky to find them. Even though they were a bit of a distance from us, we fully expected to have to take a few trips back and forth before we could bring our baby home.
After much thought and talk with the director of the Haven, I finally decided on which bird to adopt and I brought my Goffin’s Cockatoo home a few months ago. Already, he’s integrated into the family so well and I love him so much!
I was lucky that my bird had been in a Haven foster home before I adopted him and they have been wonderful with helping me learn more about my bird and his likes and schedule and foods and dislikes, etc. I love how they have foster homes that help prepare the birds for adoption and get them more used to human contact and interaction if they haven’t already been in a family.
Our new cockatoo family member has a little brother named Conner, a Conure, and I am in birdie heaven with them both!
I highly recommend Wings of Love Bird Haven for adopting birds… or sadly, if you have to release one to someone who cares and will take care of them. They are amazing.
