My sister's B&G flew out the door last night and she has been desperately searching since then. She has food and a stand outside and has called local vets and rescues, talked to the neighbors, and is putting up flyers. The weather is cold and it snowed 5 inches yesterday. If anyone is in the area and is able or willing to help, or has found, or knows someone who found a b&g, please pm me and I will pass on her information. Please keep my sister and Cecilia (b&g) in your thoughts and prayers so that Cecilia is able to come home where she belongs.

She is in the Bartlett area of Memphis, off of Whitten.
Yes, she has been contacting vets/rescues and has an ad on craigslist, kiijii, and 911 parrot alert. Patrick, who is a member here also, and who is also a close friend of hers is helping her too. That would be wonderful if you could put it on the facebook page. She does have a band number (I told her to keep it to herself) so she'll be able to identify her. Thank you so much.:hug8:

Thank you everyone who is cross posting information and offering help. My sister is a wreck right now and thankfully has a lot of support around her. I know she appreciates everyone's help and support. Cecilia has not been spotted since last night when she was in a tree and then flew off. The temperature was in the teens last night and has not gotten above 30 today and Iris is rapidly losing hope. Posters and flyers are being posted and the local shelters, vets, and rescues have been notified. I will be talking to her soon and suggesting the call-in radio suggestion. Please keep the positive energy, prayers, and good thoughts coming.

I talked to Patrick earlier. He asked me to cross post. I have posted on 4 other forums. Sending prayers your way that she is found!

Can she contact the non-emergency police #. Cops are always driving around and I'm sure there would be a good shot at them seeing a big macaw.
