BirdCare Aotearoa and our friends at Hollywood Avondale cinema are screening Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds (1963)!
Sunday 10th Nov, 6.30pm

This classic horror-thriller film was selected for our fundraiser, as Hitchcock explained that the events at Bodega Bay unfolded because humans took nature for granted, and this continues to be a timely reminder for us all to care for nature. The Birds will feature after a short trailer about BirdCare Aotearoa, and the evening is also a chance for you to meet our team.

All funds raised will support our renowned wild bird hospital and rehabilitation centre, where heroes like you bring in up to 100 sick, injured or orphaned birds a day! We are a charity, operating on donations and grants, so thank you for supporting us!

The Hollywood Avondale is renowned as a "Free spirit in the cinematic world," and this historic cinema palace is the perfect setting for this fundraiser screening.

Bird lovers, classic film enthusiasts, horror fans, and historians, please share this invitation with friends, family and colleagues, and book your seats today!

One-off original NZ artwork – BirdCare Aotearoa charity auction

This stunning one-off sculptural embroidery is handmade in NZ and inspired by one of three moho pererū (banded rails) raised and rehabilitated by BirdCare Aotearoa.

The three banded rails were admitted to BirdCare Aotearoa as hatchlings. On arrival, they weighed only 10 grams. Two arrived in very unstable condition but with the dedicated care of the BirdCare Aotearoa team, they grew into strong, healthy birds and were released at a predator-controlled site this week.

This auction will raise money for a native species habitat which will help ensure the successful rehabilitation of banded rails, kōtare (sacred kingfisher) and other native species – giving them the best chance of release into the wild where they belong.

Please show your love for NZ wildlife and support BirdCare Aotearoa’s life-saving work by bidding generously. Not only will you be directly helping wildlife, you will also get the chance to have this beautiful and unique artwork in your own home.

Artwork details:

* One-off original, beautifully capturing the rail in his juvenile stage.
* Handmade in Cathy’s studio, the piece is made up of hundreds of tiny stitches, made on a sewing machine, and finished by hand embroidery.
* Professionally framed in a white frame with high grade glass (ultimate clarity, reduced reflection and 99% UV protection).
* Size: 22cm x 22cm x 4.5cm deep.

100% of the proceeds will go directly to BirdCare Aotearoa, supporting them to continue caring for banded rails and other wild birds.

Thank you so much to Cathy for creating this exquisite artwork and thank you in advance to all of you wonderful bidders!
