The Ohio Bird Sanctuary
The Ohio Bird Sanctuary
The mission of the Ohio Bird Sanctuary is to preserve the biodiversity of Ohio through education, rehabilitation, and stewardship. The Sanctuary strives to fulfill this mission by:
- Inspiring individuals to be good stewards of the natural environment.
- Creating an opportunity for all people to experience the wonders of nature.
- Providing humane and professional care for Ohio’s native bird species.
Education is the cornerstone of the Sanctuary’s mission. During the school year over 20,000 individuals attend programs presented throughout Ohio and at the facility. In addition to the school curriculum, the Sanctuary also offers other learning opportunities. On weekends we offer programs such as Junior Naturalist, Creatures of the Night, Christmas for the Birds, Fall Wildlife Festival, and Breeding Bird Surveys. During the summer local children attend Nature Camps for students ages 6-12. Public outreach programs are given weekly at Mohican State Park Resort and seasonally at Malabar Farm, Gorman Nature Center, Kingwood Center, Wildlife Expos and the Ohio State Fair. The Sanctuary’s educational outreach programming has expanded over the last three years to include programming for our area homeless shelter, summer camps for disadvantaged youth and weekly visits to the Mansfield City preschool classrooms. These programs are all funded through grants and corporate support.
