Marcus Chen

Bird Care Writer & Wildlife Advocate

I'm a lifelong bird enthusiast who got serious about avian welfare after finding an injured robin in my backyard seven years ago. That experience led me down a rabbit hole of learning about bird injuries, rescue protocols, and how to connect people with help fast. I volunteer with a local wildlife rehabilitation center most weekends, which keeps my knowledge current and grounded in real-world rescue scenarios. I live in the Pacific Northwest with my partner, two rescue budgies, and a very bird-conscious cat. I write about what actually works when ordinary people encounter injured birds—practical, no-nonsense guidance that cuts through the panic.
