★★★★★Maria P.

Awesome, Awesome and awesome. It is wonderful place to see birds up close - literally one foot in front of you. It was an impromptu visit and we loved it - impressive displays and helpful staff.

Brought in a baby mockingbird with a broke leg and they said they would have to Euthanize it. I contacted them to help the animal not to put it down. It's very upsetting.

★★★★★Alexandra Madden

A well-rounded environmental center for education and conservation/rescue, plus entertainment and recreation. Their holiday and outreach camps are invaluable for teaching all generations. Indoor classrooms and critters, narure trails, pond with seating, aviaries, plus variety of local wildlife to see and learn about up close.

★★★★★John Jansen

Great overall experience, great staff. If you bring a bag of cheerios you WILL start a feeding frenzy at the dock! Really nice indoor enclosures. P.S. Look for the little blue jay with one eye at the bird pen. ( He’s very friendly)

Very peaceful, love to see the animals. My kids loved it. We live very close by however this was our first time visiting two days in a row. Wonderful job the people who work here love what they do. Everyone should promote and support places like this to preserve the animals and to educate our new generations to appreciate and do their part to preserve nature. This place should be supported by the Mobile County public school system. Visit and tell others about this place, please. Do not litter. preserve our water resources, help turtles cross the road., plant a pollinators garden. God Bless you all!
