bird rescue

Wounded wing haven

Bird rescue refers to organizations or efforts dedicated to saving injured, orphaned, or abandoned birds.

These groups typically rehabilitate wild birds for release or provide sanctuary for domestic birds that can't be rehomed: The wildlife center runs a bird rescue for raptors.

The term also describes the act itself: We called animal control for a bird rescue after finding the injured owl.
