A central feature of our education program is our Ambassador birds who, because of previous injury or other debilitating conditions, could not return to a life in the wild. These birds captivate audiences and instill the lessons that inspire them to become better stewards for the well-being of all birds.
 
Although our primary goal is always to return birds to their natural habitat, due to injuries some cannot be released. A select few become permanent residents at BRC. These resident birds serve as Ambassadors in education and outreach programs, helping to teach children and adults about the importance of birds and wildlife in the environment and local ecology
