Zaksee Florida Bird Sanctuary

"Zaksee's is a place like no other. The owner does an amazing job caring for and ensuring quality of life for the birds at the sanctuary. Magic takes the time to build a relationship with every bird under his care at Zaksee's and to deeply consider each of their needs. Birds are kept together in large flight cages when possible so they can pass the days flying free with their friends. When one may pose a potential to fight with or hurt other birds, Magic makes sure the birds are still kept next door to their friends (and even supervises play dates for them). Most of the birds came from homes that could no longer meet their needs, some of them come to Zaksee's because of behavioral issues in their previous home environment. At Zaksee's they are met where they are, loved, and lifted up. I've not seen a single unhappy bird at the sanctuary. For the safety and wellbeing of the birds Zaksee's is not open to the public. Those who are able to sponsor a bird are welcomed to come see the babies and the positive impact they're making. If you can afford to, please consider donating. Donations go towards bird food, enrichment toys, and supplies to build new aviaries to provide homes for more birds in need."

"This sanctuary is absolutely amazing and is worthy of donations and dedicated volunteers. This sanctuary is unique because the owner does not believe in selling or breeding his birds to make a profit. The birds are treated with respect and given the most enriching lives that the owner can provide. However, donations are desperately needed so that the birds can have bigger flight cages and to ensure that all of their needs are taken care of. In addition, being able to volunteer at this place was an enriching experience for me that gave me a new appreciation for birds."

"Thankful for this beautiful sanctuary for God’s creatures and the man “Magic” that cares for them and works so hard.He truly is amazing and gives all his time and loves these birds with all his heart. He needs our help to support these birds and all the others he has there to feed and care for. He is a good man and he is doing a good work. I hope and pray God provides. Bless you and all you do there."

"Last year I came to Zaksee's to drop off some donated parrot food. Little did I know that when I stepped into the Sanctuary for the first time, I would find my second home. I've been volunteering ever since.....and can confirm that Magic, the owner, does an incredible job caring for and loving the birds surrendered to him. It is a parrot sanctuary and has lots of needs, so if you have time or resources to help, make a call and set up an appointment."
