A bird adoption is a special way to show your support towards BirdLife Cyprus. By adopting one of three iconic species, the Greater Flamingo, the Griffon Vulture or the Eurasian Roller, you will receive a wonderful gift as a thank you for your important contribution. This is a symbolic bird adoption (you do not adopt a real bird in the wild), through which many birds will benefit from your generous support.

Your contribution helps us continue our work for the protection and conservation of birds and their habitats in Cyprus. The money collected from bird adoptions is used to support BirdLife Cyprus’ activities, such as the systematic monitoring of bird populations, policy and advocacy work to make sure that bird habitats are adequately protected, hands-on conservation projects, as well as awareness-raising and education actions.

The symbolic bird adoption package includes an illustration of the bird of your choice by artist Daphne Christoforou, printed on A4 archival-certified paper (giclée), an adoption certificate and a set of greeting cards to spread the word.

You will be regularly informed about our actions, some of which may directly concern the species you have adopted and its habitats. Simply tick on the box to receive news and updates via e-mail when filling out the adoption form.

Of course! You can give an adoption as a gift to yourself or a loved one. When filling out the adoption form, please note the name you would like to be written on the adoption certificate, as well as the address to which you would like the adoption package to be sent.

No, you can adopt as many birds as you like! A bird adoption is a unique gift with a noble cause that you can give to yourself or your loved ones.

There is no validity period for our symbolic bird adoptions. If you wish, you can adopt one bird a year, that way collecting all three illustrations to hang in your home.

Bird adoptions can be made online by filing out the adoption form and payments are done with a credit/debit card or via PayPal. If you prefer, you can also pay via bank transfer to our bank account (find below):
