Thank you for the kind words everyone, it is so greatly appreciated. My husband saw her in a tree this afternoon, but she spooked as he was getting close and flew off. He was in the woods by our house, and lost his sense of direction, so unfortunately we don’t know where she went. We have a fairly large wooded/swampy area behind our house, which severely complicates things.
It was raining off and on all afternoon (just regular rain showers, not Dorian-related). We had her cage out with food and water, but no sign or sound of her. I pulled it back into the screened porch for the night to keep the other animals from getting into it. I’ll bring it back out in the morning and we’ll continue our search. The outer rain bands are forecasted to come in the evening. I’m just devastated. The whole situation has me sick to my stomach anyway, but the impending storm takes it over the edge.
