Parakeet

Message from Finder

I spotted this parakeet eating on the seed I put out this morning. This poor thing doesn't belong outside. I tried to approach but it flew away.

Does she have a pool net, butterfly net, a small dowel? Maybe it's been trained to step up on a dowel? If not a net, or something she can throw over it might be quickest way. If it lives long enough

A parakeet would be hard to make through the cold weather.

Maybe feed him and bait it closer to a coop. The coop could give him shelter from the weather. Someone at the shelter may have a live trap.

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 when nothing else works and if it’s hot outside. Don’t do it when it’s cold) 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

This is ironic and I know it CAN NOT BE THE SAME BIRD......but I saw one that looked JUST LIKE THIS 3 different times on 617 in Ivor, VA. I tried to get pictures the last 2 times I saw it but everytime I got out of my vehicle to take a pic, it flew away. This was about a year ago.

If there's any way you can borrow a cage you can put millet in there and try to catch it
