Wow! What a gem! So beautiful. The birds are amazing and I’m so happy they have a good home and get to live out their days in the best way♥️ The trails are really nice and well marked. Dog friendly on the trails but not in the bird space! Please be respectful. Bring your bug spray lol. The gift shop is self-serve and has lots of neat stuff! Make sure to leave a donation.

What a beautiful, magical place. The surroundings are gorgeous and the Sanctuary itself is wonderful, you can see into the bird of prey habitats, they have descriptions. I hope they have the support to continue their good work
