Pandemonium Aviaries began in 1996 with the rescue of an injured dove by the side of the road. Other birds that needed help followed. Becoming a bird sanctuary was not planned. It just seemed like the right thing to do.
In 2005, we transitioned from focusing on individual birds to species survival. The catalyst was the death of a Green-Naped pheasant pigeon. She died suddenly and her grieving mate was inconsolable. We tried to find a replacement, but the species had become so rare there were only 32 listed in the world wide zoo data base.

Our search was ultimately successful and we emerged with a changed perspective about the importance of breeding rare birds. Although we were already one of the largest non-companion sanctuaries in the US, we realized that saving individual birds was not enough. We needed a more global view so that we could help birds in a more comprehensive, significant and far reaching manner.

In 2009, we became a 501(c)3 non-profit. We expanded our programs, invited help from like minded people and put in place an internal structure to support ambitious goals. We analyzed the challenges facing birds, identified our core strengths, sought out advice from a multidisciplinary team of experts. One of the outcomes was ARC (Avian Recovery for Conservation), which is an innovative conservation strategy.

In addition to our expanded role in conservation, we remain committed to providing life long care for the hundreds of birds already at Pandemonium.

Pandemonium Aviaries is an all-volunteer organization. We are a group of people who believe that all things are possible if you start with pure motives, navigate with an ethical internal compass and set course for a destination that benefits others.
