M.A.R.S. Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary

Update on hours of operation week of Jan.14th 3013

M.A.R.S. will be open Monday, Wednesday and Saturday this week. New volunteers are coming on board to allow us to do so once again. Pretty soon we might be back to Fridays being open too. Keep your fingers crossed.

Looks like a great week to visit so far but as we always say check the weather right before you visit just to make sure.

As always please remember Melbourne Avian Rescue Sanctuary for your charitable  donation. You and only you keep us doing all we do here at the rescue for all those parrots who come through M.A.R.S. doors.

Wishing all a very Merry Christmas morning, M.A.R.S. style

How could I resist an early walk on the beach here in the hometown of Melbourne Beach where M.A.R.S. is located. It promised to be a picture perfect sunrise, so with camera in one hand and a wreath in the other I headed to the beach at the end of our street. Hoping to get the perfect sunrise picture to share with all of you.
While waiting I waked along the shore and  put the wreath down while I did so. Upon returning I realized that until the sun came up that might be a good start for my first morning pic.

I waited only a short while longer and this is the end result.

Merry Christmas from all of us here at M.A.R.S.

M.A.R.S. is decked out for the Holiday Season.

Come for a visit and plan on staying for awhile. M.A.R.S. IS OPEN THIS SATURDAY THE 15TH. Many adoptable birds awaiting new homes for the Holidays. Amazons like Van and Marley and JoJo. Cockatoos like Zues and Dusty. Macaws like Isabella, and Dakota and Crackers. Many others available like Apollo the African Grey.
Remember also we have Quakers,Conures and Cockatiels too.
Please visit and always Remember DON’T SHOP ADOPT. As we are quickly coming to the end of the year please remember when making your tax deductible contributions to keep M.A.R.S.  in your thoughts. Only you make it possible for us to continue our work into the new year and beyond.
