Avian Adoptions

Looking for that perfect Christmas gift for the bird lover on your list? Why not consider an Avian Adoption at the Aviary? Your gift includes a certificate of adoption, and an information sheet about the adopter’s bird. Adopters can also go on our adopters’ email list for special announcements about the Aviary. The best part is that you get a tax receipt for the cost of the adoption.

Adoptions also make great gifts for birthdays, anniversaries and other special occasions. To get more information about Avian Adoptions go to the Aviary web site www.friendsoftheaviary.ca or contact Marion Bryner at mbryner@bell.net
