BIRDING IN THE PACIFIC FLYWAY
BIG DAY 2023 - THANK YOU!
On May 13th, Team Sapsucker headed to the Pacific Flyway for BIG DAY 2023! The Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s team of scientists, bird enthusiasts, and regional partners raced to identify as many species as they could in 24 hours, to raise awareness and crucial funds for conservation. Watch their message of Thanks and a BIG THANKS to all who donated to this worthy event!
We welcome you and your flock to the South Bay Bird Society! Our goal is to share all the things we have learned along the flight path, including teaching our humans how to care for us. Visit our website to learn more about becoming a member of our flock and check back frequently to see our informative events! Or, check our events on Meetup!
Maui Humane Society Interview
Maui Humane Society is accepting donations for the pets who need medical care as a result of the Maui fire. Donate by going to
info@mauihumanesociety.org.
Also, there is a Maui Bird Rescue that is accepting donations of cages to house parrots for those birds who are homeless due to the fires. I don't see where the rescue is asking for monetary donations at this time but their number is (808) 359-0431.
While there are no parrot organizations affected by the Maui fire, I thought I'd give a list of ways to donate to help animals on Maui
There is also Maui Bird Rescue, which has taken in displaced parrots, but I don't see any request for donations or even a donation link:
