The Second Chance Bird Rescue was founded in May 2012 by Donna Costley for the purpose of providing a loving rescue and sanctuary for homeless, unwanted and special needs parrots. It is a small rescue here in Bend, Oregon on ten acres. We have outdoor aviaries for the bigger birds to get them back to nature as best we can. All the birds receive quality care along with rehabilitation and hopefully rehoming. It is not a shelter, but a place designed for relinquished parrots to experience a normal life and with interaction, resulting in less stress when they are rehomed. The flock experience greatly helps each bird to re-adjust from past issues and learn from each other, rediscovering joy and playfulness.
