A Brown Pelican was barely a year old when he became tangled in a length of discarded fishing line along the coast. It was a small piece of human carelessness — the kind of thing most of us would walk right past. But for a wild bird, it can be a death sentence.
At the National Aviary, we opened our doors to him. His name is now, Harper.
During our Fall Campaign, your gift to the Avian Conservation Fund will go twice as far to rescue, heal, and care for birds in need like Harper. Thanks to Dr. Marshall Sklar, a generous friend of the National Aviary and member of our Donor Society, the first $10,000 in gifts will be matched dollar for dollar — and every matching dollar goes directly to the veterinary care that saves lives.
