The Wildlife Center of North Georgia is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to providing care for wild songbirds. We focus on providing care for orphaned and injured birds so our patients can return to the wild to live normal lives. We also work to increase awareness of the importance of protecting wild birds from the human-related risks affecting their populations.

​

Our program of rehabilitation includes species-specific nutritional management, medical care, habitat enrichment, species socialization, and pre-release conditioning. Our work is centered on keeping our patients "wild" so they can be released to resume normal lives and produce future generations.
