Q. Where Do Our birds come from? :)

A. They came from the wild originally but ended up in human possession from being
injured, orphaned,and sadly, from being poached.

Though, Not all herons, egrets & songbirds are injured/orphaned through poaching. Many are displaced by urban development/ deforestation, window strikes, fishing, pollution and other human-created situations.

We don't judge anyone who turns in an orphaned or injured wildbird. The fact that they wanted to help & save another life is a step into the right direction.

"My birds come from a sense that if nobody helps them, they have no chance of surviving the interference that humanity imposes upon them.

They come from the reality that they are exploited and loosing miles of habatat by the day.
and -
They come from people who cared enough to realize that walking away and ignoring their desperation will not serve them better, it would only ensure their demise."
