G’Day Birdie Sanctuary

G’Day Birdie Sanctuary Est. 2019. A non-profit refuge for rescued and rehomed small birds in West Gippsland, Australia. We help small birds to lead big lives!

A somewhat belated update, but an important one nonetheless - thanks to your incredible donations, we were able to finish reinforcing the roofing on our aviary building with polycarbonate sheeting. It's not the prettiest job in the world, but for a DIY effort it does the trick nicely!

This has already made a huge difference to the aviaries, as it has also helped to keep them much drier during the heavy winter rain. We are so grateful to the dozens of people who generously donated to help make this effort possible, as well as those who have been sending through well wishes. Thank you for helping to protect our resident birds from H5N1, which is unfortunately continuing to spread through wildlife.

Our flocks are otherwise all doing well, and we hope yours are too! 🧡🐦‍⬛🐦🦜🕊️

FREE for personal use only - not for breeding.

Hello friends! We have recently moved some more birds out into the aviaries, so now have several flight cages which we no longer need. They need a proper clean, but are otherwise still in okay condition. They are free to whoever can use them for their personal birds or small pet rodents, as long as you are not a backyard breeder (this would be antithetical to our ethos as a rescue).

Pickup is at the sanctuary in Warragul. You will need to either bring a trailer/4WD or disassemble them yourself.

NO HOLDS - we were stuffed around by too many people who never showed up last time we made a similar post to this.

Photo is for illustrative purposes, but most of the cages are similar to the one shown 🙂

Always watching, always judging 👀

It was a chilly 0°C outside while feeding the aviaries this morning… so Jamie and Thursday decided to become snowwomen after completely stuffing their crops with breakfast ⛄️

The budgies say a very good morning to you all, though they planned to snooze for just a little longer when this was taken earlier 💤

Mimas the canary and Waluigi the spotted dove say a massive THANK YOU to those who have showed us so much love - by donating, offering to foster/adopt, sharing, liking, and commenting on posts, and taking the time to sensibly educate themselves about H5N1 and what it might mean for bird lovers going forward.

From a single post, we have managed to already raise $380 towards the roof covering works for our aviaries 🥹
This will allow our birds to still enjoy sunlight and vitamin D, while minimising the risk of viral transmission from wild birds who may become infected with avian influenza.

If you missed yesterday's post and are in a position to spare a "Friday Fiver ($5)" donation, you can do so via:
- Website: gdaybirdie.org/donate
- PayPal: paypal.me/gdaybirdie
- Direct Deposit:
G'Day Birdie Sanctuary
BSB: 633 000
Acct: 213 300 676

If you are in a position to foster/adopt, we would love to hear from you too. Every bird given a new home helps to open space to rescue another feathered soul in need.

Things have remained a little rough behind the scenes here recently - I have still been pretty unwell and know that our online presence has been very lacking as a result... which is why it's so overwhelming to know that we still have so much support from you all. There will be a few proper birdie posts this weekend and hopefully into next week as well 🧡
