Florida Keys Bird Sanctuary The Florida
Keys Wild Bird Rehabilitation Center began quite by accident in 1984, when
a veterinarian asked a woodcarver to help with some injured birds. True
to its Florida Keys heritage, the Center outgrew its home in Islamorada
and moved to Tavernier where it continues to grow. Its primary purpose is
to provide emergency and recuperative care for injured birds, but it is
slowly evolving into a significant collection and distribution point for
information about our environment.
The Center is located in a natural setting alongside the Bay, where you can see the real Florida Keys. When you visit, bring your camera! You'll find plenty of healthy, wild, and beautiful birds around -- along the boardwalk, up in the trees, and down along the Bay. But the Center isn't just for the birds!! Solution holes, cap rock, & pneumatophores are all around. Minnows, crabs, and sunsets appear regularly along the bay. Bromeliads are abundant along the nature trail. The only thing that's missing is YOU!!.
The Florida Keys Wild Bird Sanctuary receives no government
funding,
