Message from Owner

Please help me find my bird. Don’t know how he went out of the door but he’s not at home. His wings are not clipped so he can fly very high. He responds to his name: Jammy. He’s not used to be outside so he’s probably scared and hiding or up in a roof or tree. Please call or text me with location of seeing and time to Thanks so much for your help 🙏

those are the exact same birds. The loud, green-and-red flocks hanging out in the tall trees along O'Farrell Street (right by the Kaiser Permanente Medical Center emergency entrance) belong to the very same wild population of Cherry-headed Conures that travel down to Balboa Street and the Richmond District.Because the city's overall flock has grown to hundreds of birds over the decades, they have fractured into smaller "sub-flocks" that commute daily across San Francisco.Why They Love the O'Farrell Street SpotThe Perfect Canopy: The mature, dense trees lining O'Farrell Street and the surrounding Kaiser San Francisco campus provide an ideal urban canopy. The height keeps them safe from ground predators while giving them a great vantage point to socialize and preen.A Strategic "Pit Stop": Geographically, O'Farrell Street sits directly on their flight path between their eastern territories (like Telegraph Hill and Ina Coolbrith Park) and their western foraging grounds in the Richmond District and Golden Gate Park.Abundant Food Nearby: The surrounding Anza Vista and Lower Pacific Heights neighborhoods feature plenty of ornamental landscaping, juniper berries, loquat trees, and pine cones that the parrots love to feast on.

there are indeed wild parrots that fly around on and near Balboa Street in San Francisco. These famous birds, known as Cherry-headed Conures (also called Red-masked Parakeets), are known to occasionally stop by trees and bushes in the Richmond District to forage for berries and blossoms.While the flock's unofficial headquarters is over at Telegraph Hill near Coit Tower, their expanding population means they frequently cover a lot of territory across the city.Spotting the ParrotsKeep an eye out for these recognizable signs:The Noise: You will likely hear them long before you see them; they are incredibly loud and vocal.Distinctive Color: They are bright pickle-green with maraschino-red heads.Foraging Habits: Flocks have been previously documented enjoying trees and berry bushes in the Richmond District, including sightings on and around the 27th and Balboa Street blocks.Time of Day: They are most active and likely to be seen or heard flying overhead in the early morning or late afternoon.

Act immediately. Your parrot is likely closer than you think, often within a 1-to-2 mile radius. Stay at the exact spot they were lost and listen for their calls. Parrots usually fly up into high perches, get exhausted quickly, and freeze when scared by outdoor predators.1. Physical SearchFollow the Wind and Your Ears: Parrots usually try to fly into the wind when taking off. Walk in that direction, calling their name loudly, then pause and listen quietly. Do your searching at dawn or dusk when birds are naturally most vocal.Scan High and Low: Bring a pair of binoculars. Search rooftops, tall trees, and local structures carefully. They will often hide in the first cluster of trees they see because the outdoors intimidates them.2. Lure Them BackThe "Homing" Cage: Place your parrot’s actual cage, or a safe transport cage, on your porch or in an elevated, visible spot in your yard. Put fresh water, their favorite treats, and a familiar toy inside.Sound Beacons: Play recorded sounds of the same species or recordings of your bird's favorite flock calls/songs from a portable speaker to help guide them home.Visual Beacons: If you have another bonded bird of the same species (safely secured in a separate carrier), bring them outside temporarily while you monitor from a safe window.3. Spread the WordAlert the Community: Post details, the last known location, and clear photos on neighborhood apps like Nextdoor or dedicated groups like 911 Parrot Alert.Make Flyers: Print highly visible, brightly colored flyers. Hand them out door-to-door, to your postal carrier, local pet stores, and nearby veterinary clinics.Contact Shelters: Call local animal control, the SPCA/Humane Society, and local parrot rescues immediately to file a lost report.
