Pelican Man Bird Sanctuary
January 13, 2012
Every year, thousands of sick and injured wild birds are nursed back to health at this miraculous facility - the largest of its kind in the USA.
Visitors are welcome to learn more about birds through the viewing area and a spacious outdoor habitat. 55 species of birds reside within the habitat, and visitors are encouraged to walk the tropical park with its boardwalk.
Walking tours are available, and the Sanctuary serves to entertain, educate and inspire us all.
Pelican Man's Bird Sanctuary
Pelican Man Bird Sanctuary is one of the best birding rehab centers in Florida. One man's obsession with the health and welfare of our winged friends has culminated in an impressive organization.
Bringing the perils, plights and heroic stories to the ears of young and old, this is an attraction that also serves the greater good.
Located next to the Mote Marine Laboratory, it's something you don't want to miss.
