Migrating birds are a leading cause of the flu spreading to domesticated birds, so we plan to turn our large waterfowl pond into an enclosed aviary. This is a major construction project that will cost approximately $50,000—a cost that was unanticipated for this year and only possible with your support. We have to protect our birds while continuing the nature-based therapeutic programs that students need.
We thank you.

Volunteers are our lifeblood, and Green Chimneys has so many opportunities for those who want to “give back to the community” through volunteer work with kids, tending to gardens, and supporting animal rescue and care.
The Green Chimneys animal calendar features 12 months of our animals and their real life stories.
Take part in a photographic celebration of the animal partners that help in providing therapeutic treatment and education for children with special needs.
Crowned the best for falconry in medieval times, gyrfalcons were once reserved for kings. As the largest falcon in the world, with exquisite plumage ranging from bright white to deep charcoal, gyrs are revered for their powerful skill of flight. Their long wings make hunting waterfowl from 3,000-feet-high a feasible and fantastical feat. This falcon was flown in the sport of falconry for several years.
