Adopt a Bird 

Adopt a pet bird from Beak n' Wings, Kansas City's licensed exotic bird rescue. Come on out to our Spring Expo to see some of our birds, shop for toys and cages with our vendors, and win one of our raffles. It's a fun family event--KCI Expo Center, Saturday, Feb 24th, 9:30 - 4:30 pm. Or go to www.beaknwings.org to see the beautiful birds looking for homes. We have birds from Canaries through Macaws available, with no home study and low adoption fees on the small birds. Below are a few photos of some of our feathered friends.

Beak n' Wings is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, staffed by volunteers and funded by donations. Adoption fees cover veterinary expenses, advertising, feeding and rehabbing the bird.
