Our Pelicans and Seabirds are magnificent. Their behaviour is part of the natural fabric to our marine habitat bringing nutrients and keeping the ecological balance.

Worse yet, some are even intentionally abused by humans.

Our local Pelican and Seabird Rescue specialise in rescuing injured native birds that can still fly.
