The Bird Gardens of Naples is a nonprofit organization whose sole concern is parrot welfare in captivity and conservation of wild parrots. They are an outreach and placement program, which places into safe custody, parrots which are abandoned, abused, or in need of a home for any reason.
Parrots are intelligent, highly social and complex beings with a life span of up to 80 years. The individual bird's best interest and well being of the present flock will determine if a parrot is accepted into the organization. They actively support networking with other parrot welfare groups, animal welfare organizations, the veterinary community, conservation organizations and the general public. Education is of the utmost importance concerning the well being of a parrot and its ability to successfully live with its human companions.
The Bird Gardens of Naples is located in Corkscrew Swamp with a variety of flora, fauna, bees and butterflies. Tour will be approximately 1 1/2 hours with several miles of walking trails. You will have the opportunity to see, learn, and interact with 300+ birds from origins around the world. If weather allows, groups can enter our large macaw aviary with opportunities to take photos and hold birds.
Please wear comfortable shoes and don't forget your sunscreen and bug spray. Feel free to bring unsalted nuts to feed the birds, no peanuts please.
