Coachella Valley Wild Bird Center

About

We are a non-profit corporation created for the care and rehabilitation of orphaned, injured or sick native wild birds.

Description

The Coachella Valley Wild Bird Center is a non-profit corporation created for the care and rehabilitation of orphaned injured or sick native wild birds, with the ultimate goal of releasing them back into their habitats; to provide community education in the ways and needs of wild birds; to promote a deeper respect and understanding of the problems facing wildlife in an environment that is being altered by human activities.

Formed in 1986 and opened to the public in 1995, the Center has grown to accommodate an increasing number of wild birds from the Coachella Valley and beyond. Birds ranging in size from hummingbirds to pelicans and eagles move through the doors of this important rehabilitation center each year. The Center is open to the public free of charge, though voluntary contributions are welcome as the principal means of covering costs incurred to operate the facility.

What a great place. Linda, the original founder, knows and loves her work with all these rescued birds. She carefully, and casually handles birds that are brought in, and cares for them with the goal of releasing them back where they belong...into the wild! I wish more people would come back out and visit to support the facility. I also wish there was more water & some mist machines, on the grounds...and a few construction volunteers to help fix habitat cages, and more good fill dirt- hint hint to all you reading this review! Go out, support a long standing good cause, and get up close to birds of all ages, sizes, shapes, and attitudes! Check out the little "horns" that popped out on the head of the red tail fledgling I brought in to the facility who was about to be weighed! Enjoy. Love and support nature.
There was a small dove by one of my bushes that seemed to have an injured wing. I picked it up and set it on grass to see if it would fly, but it couldn't. So, I put it in a crate and took it to the Coachella Valley Wild Bird Center in Indio, California. The bird was checked and it was determined that it had a broken wing that they could treat and provide recuperation before releasing. I am so grateful and impressed at the professional care provided by the folks at the Center. The Center operates on volunteers who are so amazing and care so much for birds. There were many birds of all types and ages being treated there. I encourage anyone who finds an injured bird to take it to the Center. Please also consider donating to the Center so that they can continue their life saving treatments. What a valuable asset the Center is to the Coachella Valley and the precious birds.
It was a very nice informing visit that I had by visiting the Bird Refuge. Go visit just for an hour. You never know when you might have to use this facility. Oh, and please make a generous donation while you are there. Ken B.
The nice lady that ran the place gave us a tour of the land and animals. She had lots of great information! Someone brought in an injured hawk and she showed it to us and you could just tell she really cared for these animals! If you love birds and are in the area I would definitely stop by! Donate if you can to help them feed the animals! They are doing great things to help rehab the animals in the area.
We turned in an abandoned duckling today, Volunteer Linda was great and very helpful. We went home knowing this duckling will be well taken care of.
We were looking for something unique to Indio to check out while visiting and stumbled upon this little gem. Nice little stop to see some amazing birds that are be nursed back to health up close and personal
They do great work on the rehabilitation of the birds. The only place within 100 miles that provides this service. Its also a great place to visit to see the wonderful creatures. It may even inspire you to volunteer.
I turned in a baby or a nestling raven that fell off a tall palm tree today. This facility accepts all wild birds, injured birds and baby birds. The baby raven i turned in injured its right elbow from the fall. The kind lady on the front desk helped me out. She was very helpful and she explained to me how baby birds are especially ravens. She will contact another facility that specializes in ravens. CV Wild Bird Center is the right place if you happen to find a wild bird whether it is injured or not. They will take it in to give the bird another chance to survive. Please don't forget to leave a small donation. This will help to feed and care for the birds.
Awesome place for birds, Best people who are kind and experienced. Please donate whenever you have a chance, that goes a long way to help those beautiful birds in need.
This place is truly amazing. They work off donations and volunteers. They are all so caring. If you find an injured wild bird, for a small donation, they will do their best to try to rehabilitate them. Sometimes I like to go and just see who the current creatures are. I just wish the sanitation district had left the ponds there for water fowl. It was so fun to take walks and see the migrating birds there. It also helped bring people to the wild bird center.
