This is a somewhat hidden hiking spot among the more popular Forest Park. The trails make for an easy, casual hike. On the north side of Cornell Road is the main building, gift shop, wildlife care center, and the more interesting trails where you're likely to see many types of birds including Pilate Woodpeckers and some nice valley views. The south side of the road has some longer, steeper hike with more forest views and less wildlife.

They could do bettered, with their, "know it all," attitude. More impressed with Steph, than with Pamela, for sure!

A really quiet day exploring this beautiful area. Wasn't busy at all and was very nice out!

This is the first time I have taken an injured wild animal to Audobon. An older woman staff member with glasses said the restrooms are located inside the building. The buildings were locked and the lights were out and I ended up peeing outside. I affectionately named this female seagull, Ms. Blackwood, from Top Gun. I prayed with this seagull, I let her hear me sing, I prayed the mysteries. The day Ms. Blackwood, the seagull was injured was an important day for the Seattle Seahawks who ended up with a playoffs eliminating loss 25-24. I imagine the bird was injured just before the end of the game. Interesting. I was hauling my cat after buying some coffee and cat food and came across this heaped pile of feathers, adjusted her to a normal sitting position, felt her wing and discovered some bone poking tough. I tucked the seagull Ms. Blackwood under me arm and got home. I wrapped Ms. Blackwood in a towel and then a ribbon to keep her stable. To prevent further injury. I look forward to being called back to attend the release of Ms. Blackwood into the wild. I did not bring my first wildlife rescue to Audobon Society to have tge animal euthanized. I brought this animal, Ms. Blackwood, the seagull to Audobon Society to be fixed. Alis Volat Propriis

You would be better served to call a local bird food shop. (Try an animal feed shop). If they don't know, then try calling Wildlife Care Center. I don't think they have an email hotline.
@Carla Great question. It is not safe to feed wildlife at Audobon parks or Oregon Metro preserves, particularly as it gives unnatural advantage to predatory birds and threatens the more sensitive/rare populations. Volunteers at Audobon can fill you in more. Good news though- There's lots of opportunities to help bird populations naturally & attract more via volunteer work cleaning up parks/planting trees, and shopping at Audobon & Backyard Bird Shop.
Yes! There are entire groups of teenagers that do projects and also there are youth learning opportunities. Go to audubonportland.org and click on "volunteer" on top. There is an email address at the bottom of that page. Contact them with what you're looking for and they will help.
I'd call the humane society and/or her vet. Audobon send to work more work wild birds Sorry for your loss
Hi Stephen, If you call the Portland Audobon store, an ornithologist or volunteer should be able to expertly answer. The trails are open and the store allows limited visitors with standard masks, social distancing, & available hand sanitizer. I'll offer my amateur opinion that many wildlife areas and parks dissuade feeding populations of park wildlife soas to create a semi-controlled natural balance and not give unjust advantages to cohabitors like pigeons and raccoons. But backyard birdhouses and bat boxes to create habitats and utilizing suet and nesting materials to enhance survivability in expanding urban areas is a major aid to certain ecosystems, and a very Oregonian thing to do. The folks at Portland Audobon and/or Backyard Bird Shop can definitely dive deeper into responsible conservation support if you call or visit. There is a free Portland Audobon education center open in addition to the store and trail that exists to help navigate these types of questions. 🐦
Non processed longer. In other words, "natural".
Hi Chelsea - Please call our Wildlife Care Center, open every day from 9 - 5. They are the experts and can assist you: 503-292-0304
Hello, Miss Morgan. You are asking Google guides your questions, your questions do not go to the business you are inquiring of. Therefore, my suggestion would be to either Google or otherwise look up the Audubon Society's phone number, and call them and ask them directly what they would recommend. Good luck!
Usually Robin's.
Call animal control so they can check it out. Owl's are protected and they will determine what killed it. If it was poison,shot or died of natural causes. Blessings
Hi John - We're not sure without more information, although it is baby bird season so perhaps they are caring for their young.
You need to call the Audubon society
Leave it. Birds fall from nests, the parents will mind it until it can fly
Put a shiny streamer on teg window, they will eventually move away
Call Audubon and ask for recommendations. I would say watch a little longer? See of parents are around? Just in case.. try to keep him out of the road in the meantime? If possible 🙏
I have no idea. Contact the Audobon society.
It has its nest next to your truck move truck or relocate nest
Hi Joe/Connie Leben, Thanks so much for your question and for your gift! We are a separate organization so when you donate to Portland Audubon, all those funds are used on the ground right her in Oregon to protect wildlife and habitat. We are affiliated with National Audubon but we are each independent nonprofits. Wishing you the best.
If it is a rock pigeon, they cannot rehab. it , because it is non-native, but will provide humane euthanasia
Hi Pam - Asian Herons aren't a species we have here in Oregon. Are you thinking of a species that goes by another name?
I would call and ask. Not sure if they are able to take them.
Some years are wetter and colder than the others, remember many birds are migratory animal. As far as global warming goes all I can say is go ahead and thank some people who are older than us for all their excellent care they took of the planet
Hi Kathy - You are likely seeing a Rufous Hummingbird. They look almost identical to an Allen's but are found in the Portland area. Allen's Hummingbirds are found mostly in California and a little bit in southern Oregon.
Anna's Hummingbirds are often challenging to see around the trails. However, if you look around the buildings and at our feeders, you can often spot one.
You might want to call the Audubon Society directly, and ask them this question. You might also want to try to take a couple of pictures if you can, so that they can actually see the nest, and they would probably be a little bit more helpful to you in that case. You could also call the Jackson bottom Wetlands Society in Hillsboro, and ask them for their input as well, as they are very knowledgeable about birds and nests in the area. I hope this helps. Good luck! Cheers!
Hi Ronny - When crows find a predator in their territory, they do something called "mobbing" which means that they try to harass the predator until it leaves the area. The Barred Owl can fly away if it becomes too much. Unless the bird is already injured and is unable to fly. If the owl is injured, please call our Wildlife Care Center for next steps: 503-292-0304
Hi Cecelia - Please call our experts at the Wildlife Care Center right away: 503-292-0304
Hi Tracie - It depends on your question. You can review information on Swifts on our website, or call our Wildlife Care Center at 503-292-0304. https://audubonportland.org/wcc/urban/vauxsswift
Please get in touch with the society itself. This is a consumer opinion group. Not the Audubon Society
Thanks for your question! Please find our resources here on woodpeckers, drumming, and what you can do if you'd like it to stop: https://audubonportland.org/wcc/urban/woodpeckers
Hi Eilieen - This would be a question for our experts at the Wildlife Care Center. Please give them a ring at 503-292-0304. Thanks!
This would be a question for our Wildlife Care Center. Please give them a call at 503-292-0304.
Or leave a message. There arre volunteers that will go out and look.
The folks at the Audubon Society are happy to answer questions, direct you to help and assist us with wildlife encounters. Give them a call!
I'd advise to call them. It's possible they will not see this.
Please call the Audubon society. They will be happy to help you decide your next course of action. Thank you for caring about our feathered friends!
Hi Molly - Our power was out but is now back up. You can call our Care Center again to get feedback on what to do next. Thank you!
Hi Marie - I wish we could help but we'd need more to go on. Thanks for asking though!
Rolling boil for one full minute, then 4:1 ratio of water to sugar- let it cool before offering to feathered friends :)
Yes, they can help, if you take it to them. Best to call first if you have not already.
The only real way to tell would be observing the nest for a short period of time. It's likely if you don't see a bird around there within an hour or two that it is.
Try contacting American Racing Pigeon Union or the International Federation of American Pigeon Fanciers. Have the band numbers ready & take a photo if possible. Orange band on left leg might belong to different group then right-legged orange band.
#1 It has to be a native species. #2 They occasionally help non- birds. But, I would call first.
The cliff swallows are active now at White River Falls, second level!
Call them or your vet as soon as possible
This is general question should be called into the auburn wildlife number at top of page
I am sure they will help it but you have to catch it and take it to the auburn wildlife refuge on Cornell road in Portland. If you live-in Portland OK,I don't think they actually come out and get injured animals
Put decals on the windows. Thats what they do at the Audubon.
Hi Nancy - This is the perfect question to ask the experts at our Wildlife Care Center. You can reach them between 9 and 5 at 503-292-0304.
They don't monitor Google maps. You need to call them.
Call the Audubon wildlife care center and they will direct you.
Curtains and non reflective film.
Diluted white vinegar
Only staff and trained volunteers interact directly with the educational birds.
Beekeepers should remove for free, they make a new hive with them
Al's Garden Center or Portland Nursery can help identify plants. Probably other large nurseries as well.
Call animal control.
So did you get any help ,you would have had to takeover in.The opening hours are on the website.It is a bird refuge so tell me how you got on
First try and trace the leg band. If that does not work i would ask around where the parrot went missing and local animal shelter. Post notices. The parrot may return home.
