THE STOP
The isthmus · one marked point Feather & Flight

01 · Exams, trims & emergencies

From every shore, one stop.

Birds reach the clinic by three routes: a scheduled exam, a stay while you travel, and the emergency that can't wait. All three land in the same room, in the middle of Madison.

01

Exams & trims

A full look at the bird: plumage, beak, nails, weight, and how it is really eating at home.

  • Avian wellness exam
  • Beak and nail trims
  • Wing clipping
  • Nutritional counseling
02

Boarding

Heading out of town? Your bird can stay with us for the days you are away, on the routine you describe at drop-off.

03

Emergency care

If something has changed suddenly — a bird sitting fluffed, off its food, or injured — call the clinic before you set out, so we can be ready the moment you arrive.

02 · Boarding

Boarding is a layover.

Some birds come in for an hour; some stay for a week. Overnight and multi-day boarding is booked the same way as an exam — tell us the dates and the routine the bird keeps at home.

  • Enclosures set up for the species and size
  • Perches suited to the bird's grip
  • Fed and watered on the schedule you describe
  • Checked on each day of the stay

03 · Everyday care

The small work that keeps a bird flying.

Trims, wings, and diet are where a lot of avian trouble starts — and where most of it stops. We look at all three together, because a beak that needs trimming is usually saying something about the bowl.

  1. 01

    Beak and nails

    Length, wear, and whether a trim is due now or can wait.

  2. 02

    Wings

    Whether clipping suits this bird and this household, and how much to take.

  3. 03

    Diet

    What is in the bowl now, and the shortest route to something better.

  4. 04

    Housing and light

    Cage, perches, sleep, and the hours of light the bird actually gets.

  5. 05

    What you've noticed

    Voice, appetite, droppings, behavior — the details only you can bring in.
