Rich Weiner, Director of Refuge for Saving the Wildlife, was a guest speaker at our 2005 Hookbill Fair. Rich declined a speaker's fee but accepted our donation to the rescue organization. Below is a snapshot of Phyllis (right) and Janet (left) presenting our check for $1,000 to Rich. 
Thanks to Rich for is presentations and the ongoing efforts of A Refuge for Saving the Wildlife. 
Rich Weiner started his love for birds when he purchased "Prince", his male CAG. Soon after that came "Ninja" his female U2. That was over 18 years ago. He soon became known as the man who will take in your unwanted bird. After realizing what a need there is for companion bird rescue, he started a Refuge for Saving the Wildlife, Inc. In addition to running the Refuge, Rich is a police/fire lieutenant. Rich is also certified as an Avian Specialist by the Pet Industry Joint Advisory Council (PIJAC) and is a certified wildlife rehabilitator/educator for raptors (hawks, eagles, owls, & falcons) and the Refuge is home to one resident red-tailed hawk, Pierce. You can contact Rich at Director@RescueTheBirds.org.
