Save the date! Our 10th Annual TRT Celebration: FeatherFest will be June 1, 2025. Games, gifts, auctions, raffles, food, and FUN!

As we celebrate the official designation of the Bald Eagle as the national bird of the United States on December 24, 2024, we are excited to spotlight our two resident bald eagles, Uno and Colonel.

As the year winds down, we’ve got some incredible milestones to share. From surpassing our annual admit average to approaching a historic 150,000 avian patients, our progress is a testament to our dedication to bird care and conservation. Curious about the numbers and what’s next for us?

On a cold December day, a Hunterdon County resident found an unlikely visitor in their yard: this Sharp-shinned Hawk (pictured)!

Find out how this avian patient is doing!

Thank you for helping us fly past our goal!

The Brant goose, with its compact size and striking black-and-white plumage, is a remarkable bird. Adapted to drink saltwater, these geese embark on long migratory journeys from their Arctic breeding grounds to coastal winter habitats. Look for them in estuaries, mudflats, and saltmarshes, where they thrive throughout the winter months.

This GivingTuesday, we have an incredible opportunity to make twice the impact on the lives of our beloved raptors. Thanks to the generosity of a board member, every dollar you donate will be matched up to $25,000! And the best part is, you don't have to wait until GivingTuesday on December 3rd to give—the matching challenge starts now!
