This bird landed in our porch. It doesn't appear to have a leg tag and it doesn't appear injured. I'm trying to lure it into a box but it recently flew away after sitting here for several minutes :(

Praying you find your baby. Don’t give up! 🙏🏼 Hoping he’s saved ASAP! Outside is so dangerous for them. They’re indoor pets only and they need to be in a safe indoor warm environment. Also, post this on the citizen app and the ring app so the neighborhood is aware and alert. You can also post it on pawboost. Or whichever neighborhood app is in your area. Also, put posters around the area. Post on Parrots 911 🦜with location You can also try a bird feeder infront your house to see if it’ll lure him back home. Or play budgie noises to locate him and see if he will come. 🙏🏼 WAYS TO CATCH A DOMESTIC BIRD OUTSIDE There are 3 main ways to catch a domestic bird outside. 1st - you can try to throw a large sheet or towel over the bird and secure in a box with breathing holes cut out or a carrier with small barring. 2nd - you can try to catch the bird with either a butterfly or fishing net and secure in the same manner. 3rd- you can try to use a small bird cage with a string attached to one of the doors, with the string keep the door open, place bird seed and water in the cage, once the bird is secure inside the cage , let the string go. This only works if you have time to watch the cage. You can also use a hose. Not too strong though you don’t want to hurt them. So he’ll be wet and he won’t be able to fly while he’s wet so it’ll be easier to pick him up and take him inside. (Only if nothing else works and it’s hot outside. Do not do it when it’s cold outside). Even if you do not find his owner please rescue him and take care of him for the time being so that he’ll be safe. Everyday is very crucial and even if you don’t find the owner you can keep him, find a safe bird rescue / shelter in your area or rehome him to a trusting loving him. But please don’t just leave him there. Please be VERY careful when you have budgies. Their safety and health are priority. It’s very hard to find them when they fly away and accidents can easily happen, they are small and delicate. Windows and doors should be closed at all times. If you ever have a window open it needs to have a secure mesh. AVOID kids and animals near them. AVOID anything toxic like garlic, onions, avocados and chocolate. AVOID teflon cookware because it’s fatal, and avoid any fumes or toxic smells like Lysol, essential oils or perfume spray. A clean environment is a must. Message me anytime if you need any advice. 🙏🏼 Electrolyte recipe you can add to his drinking water to help his immune system from what he went through outside 1 cup water 1/2 tablespoon sugar 1/8 teaspoon baking soda 1/8 teaspoon salt

If you have a cage put it on your porch with bird seed in a dish. And a small bowl of water. It may fly out but if your patient and just sit quietly you might be able to close the door. Do you need a cage?

🦜😢💔🙏 just gently put a pillow over it quickly wearing a glove and gently put your hand under the pillow and gently hold the bird and transfer the bird into a bird cage 😊

I've tried everything to capture different ones that I've had visit my feeder over the past year. They are much too skittish.
