Please also do a post in Lost and Found Pets Toronto and file a lost report with Animal Services/local shelters. Post on Neighbourhood groups too, and get signs up. Keep checking all sites and groups daily. There are also bird-related lost and found groups to post on. Toronto/GTA Lost & Found Birds as well as Lost and Found Birds Ontario

Pavel Antsipovitch You must act quickly. Your parrot is vulnerable outdoors and likely hasn’t flown far. Here’s clear, step-by-step advice to maximize recovery chances: • Search persistently on foot: Stay out as long as needed, covering your neighborhood thoroughly. Birds will go quiet at dark, but will stay put as their eyesight is terrible in the dark. You must take advantage of daylight hours. • Use sounds to locate: Play familiar calls or YouTube videos of sharp, distinctive flock calls loudly via Bluetooth speaker or phone. Listen for responses. if within earshot, your bird will very likely respond. This can often be a cheat code for finding lost birds as they are easier to locate by sound opposed to sight. • Watch for signs: Look for agitated crows, magpies, or other birds; this may indicate your parrot is nearby. • Spread the word: Notify neighbors door-to-door. Create and put up eye-catching posters everywhere (include photo, description, contact info). Post in local Facebook groups and community apps. Posters are crucial. Most escapes end up stuck up in a tree, unable to descend due to lack of flight experience. • If spotted: Never take your eyes off your bird. Stay patient and persistent; it will come down with time and coaxing (use food, toys, or calls). • Be diligent: A vast majority of domesticated escapees don’t survive without help. Starvation, freezing, or predators are common. Your efforts are their lifeline.

I recommend that you also post on Lost and Found Birds Ontario. Also, contact Animal Services and file a Lost Pet report. It would also be good to put up posters in your area and post on any neighbourhood Facebook pages, etc.
