Toucan Sanctuary New Aviary

We have been working on building a new aviary for the birds! It's going to be massive and I'm so excited! As you can imagine, this is proving to be very expensive. And although I have already paid for quite a lot of it, it would certainly help lighten the load if we had your help- so I'm opening up the ability for you to all contribute. We have most of the frame and metal work up. The last part are trees, mesh, gravel and the other miscellaneous items such as perches and misters. I'm also planning to have someone come out and install a security system in and around the area so that you can all watch the birds with better quality, angles, and with more frequency. I have compiled a list of trees we need to finish everything off and have also included an Amazon link where you can order a bundle of mesh for us for the aviary as well. I thought it would be a fun opportunity for everyone to get involved and know their tree or contribution will always be with the birds, providing endless enrichment and bettering their lives. And it will allow us to accept more needy toucans in the future! All contributions for the enclosures over $50 will get a shout out in the full aviary tour video on our Youtube Channel! Be sure to include your username along with what it's for in the memo so I can give you a proper shout out when we do the full aviary tour later. It's very important that this is done so we can add you to the list and keep track of everyone so nobody is left out. I'm so excited for this year!!
