Below the Surface of Recovery – With Grebes!
All the grebes are washed — a milestone worth celebrating! 🎉 Now our team is focused on conditioning and identifying which birds will need surgery before they can be released. Every day of care is possible thanks to your support.
Pictured here is Alice holding a grebe during the 1971 Standard Oil Spill, the event that would inspire her to found International Bird Rescue just months later. In honor of #WorldKindnessDay, help us reach our goal, now matching up to $25,000 thanks to our anonymous donors!
Oil works against a bird’s anatomy, rendering it vulnerable to the elements. Even the smallest amount can be fatal if left untreated. Take a closer look at this collaborative video with Seeker, featuring IBR CEO JD Bergeron to learn more: youtube.com/watch?v=hWmOA8…

This Is Why Birds Are So Affected by Oil Spills
A collection of DONORS have now pooled their contributions to create a 2-for-1 MATCH up to $15,000. That means that from this point forward, every you dollar donate to save the grebes will be DOUBLED! 👯♀️✨ Donate now: birdrescue.org/donate-oiled-b…
All hands on deck! Staff at our wildlife center is still hard at work over the holiday weekend, with rehab techs from both our LA and SF Bay-Delta Wildlife Centers, dedicated volunteers, and even our CEO pitching in! #socalnews #wildliferehab
Recognize the signs of a healthy grebe and an oiled grebe. Grebes’ bodies are not adapted to walking on land - if you see one stranded on the shore, it needs help! If you’re in Santa Barbara or Ventura County and see a bird in distress, call 866-SOS-BIRD
97 birds have come into our care, and many more may be on the way. Over the last two days, we were able to wash 40 birds, and our team is working tirelessly to wash more each day. You can stay updated and support by visiting here: birdrescue.org/2025-oiled-gre…
16 Northern Fulmars have recently come into care from across the Bay Area and Central Coast. The cause of this sudden influx remains unknown, but if you come across a fulmar on the beach, call our Bird Helpline at 866-SOS-BIRD (866-767-2473). 📷 Kelly Nesbitt
89 birds are currently in care at International Bird Rescue, including a group of recently admitted Northern Fulmars from the Bay Area and Central Coast. 🐦💙 More updates on these birds and their journey are coming soon – stay tuned! 📷 Finn Watson
