I found this bird sitting in the middle of the road around 5pm on Moorpark Ave. I believe it’s a pet because it was very friendly with people and jumped right onto my hand. It also has a band on its leg. Please reach out if you think it might be yours or if you know somebody who is missing a similar bird.

Posted on Lost and Found birds of the US. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/18NVhCKHsP/?mibextid=wwXIfr Thank you so much for taking care of this little one & looking for its family. Create a safe space — Once you bring the bird home, set up a designated area where the bird can feel secure. Make the room quiet for the bird and keep out other pets since you don’t know what the bird’s home environment is typically like. Provide food and water — Make sure the bird has fresh water and food. A clean bowl with water from the tap will suffice, and birds can eat bird seed, some fruits and some vegetables. Make sure to look up what birds can eat and consult a veterinarian or avian specialist for guidance. Please hydrate first with water and make sure they are drinking. You may offer watery fruits/veggies such as watermelon, peppers (hot peppers will help with pain), cantaloupe, zucchini, honey dew, cucumbers, apples, kiwi fruit, cherries, pomegranates, lettuce, applesauce or offer berries such as blueberries, blackberries, raspberries or a sprig of millet for smaller birds such as cockatiels, lovebirds, parrotlets or parakeets. Provide perches and toys — Birds get bored just like everyone else, so make sure to provide them with perches and some safe toys that can keep them entertained as you seek out their owner. Avoid handling the bird excessively — Keep in mind that the bird may be stressed and that you don’t know how often they’re handled at home. Try to keep handling to a minimum, only doing it at essential times, like providing them with fresh food and water or cleaning the cage. Consult a veterinarian — Schedule a visit to the veterinarian to have the bird checked for any health issues and to ensure they are properly cared for. Here are some steps to follow when reporting a lost bird: Contact local animal shelters and rescue organizations — Reach out to nearby animal shelters and rescues and provide them with a description of the found bird. If the bird has been reported as lost by the owner, they may already have the record on file. Otherwise, they will have the file saved if the owner does call. Contact avian veterinarians and pet stores — Reach out to avian veterinarians in your area and provide them with the same detailed description of the bird. They may have clients who have reported a lost bird fitting the same description. Additionally, contact local pet stores and ask them to keep an eye out for anyone asking about a lost bird. File a lost and found report — Typically, cities and towns have lost and found services for pets. Contacting your local animal control or municipal office will allow you to file a report. If an owner seeks their bird out through official channels, the report will be on file, and they’ll be able to contact you.

If you have not already, please post flyers in the area where you found this beauty. Also check Pawboost listings as well as Nextdoor. I know I saw a few LOST bird listing on Pawboost recently. If you don’t know how to care for a bird, please phone a local avian vet for assistance. UPDATE: I just check Pawboost and no similar birds that I could find (but keep checking). But, birds being birds, they can travel distances. This one looks in pretty good healthy so probably has not been on its own for too long. Many raptors in this area, so very fortunate to now be indoors.
