Hyacinth Haven Bird Sanctuary

Hyacinth Haven is a personally funded sanctuary offering a lifetime home to mainly parrots and other birds that simply had nowhere else to go.

Hyacinth Haven was originally built to accommodate much loved companion birds, a place where they had as much freedom in as natural surroundings as possible. Over the years however, many people sought to offer their own companion birds a better life and so we agreed to take them in. A safe haven has also been offered to birds that have for various reasons needed a new home. The only alternative fo

r some of these birds was euthanasia. And so, Hyacinth Haven became more of a sanctuary as the rescued birds far outnumber the original companions. At Hyacinth Haven we do not adopt out these birds but rather endeavour to give them a more natural life with their own kind in large purpose built aviaries. Here they are encouraged to express their natural behaviours and have the freedom of flight. The sanctuary consists of three main aviaries; Hyacinth Haven which is home to the macaws, Grey Too which houses mainly African Greys and Cockatoos and The Gentle Aviary for birds of a quieter and gentler disposition. Alongside and inside these are other transition aviaries and enclosures for birds that do not get along in the main aviaries for various reasons.

Thank you so much to everyone around the world for all your interest, kind wishes and offers to help. I have been astounded by the numbers and have a sincere hope that this will translate into more interest to help and advance avian medicine. I have attached a video of Max, the day after the operation, eating his first solid chunk of food in two years ! It really is amazing to see his enjoyment. Because of the many questions I have received asking for more information concerning Max and the specialized, and very special, team that made this all possible I and putting two links below. One is to the article by Bunnycorp, the proshetic company involved which details all the people and companies involved,, and the second one is the article I wrote with more background information on Max for Happy Tails magazine. https://bunnycorp.co.za/mad-max-the-cyborg-macaw/ https://www.happytailsmagazine.co.za/happy-tales/max-the-macaw-gets-a-state-of-the-art-beak/ I hope they answer your questions. With kindest regards Trevor
