Volunteers are the heartbeat of our work! If you love songbirds and care about the natural world, join our team and help us make a difference! We have a variety of opportunities to get involved!
Native Songbird Care & Conservation cares for approximately 1,000 songbirds a year, from as many as 75 different species. We provide ongoing care for our patients seven days a week, fifty-two weeks a year, with a dedicated team of volunteers.
Our goal is to restore our patients to full their health so that they may be released back to their free and wild lives. Adult volunteers learn many aspects of our work as wildlife rehabilitators, including species identification, proper handling, husbandry, hygiene and safety precautions, and other essential skills needed to provide the best care to our patients.
