Found friendly parakeet

[Hermesbird]

Hi everyone. My fiancé was fishing today and a very nice parakeet flew to him. So we’re guessing they have a home but gotten out. We’re fostering for now in hopes of finding s/hes home. Any advice on going about this? It’s in long island NY.

So sweet that he found your finance! Sad that he got away from the owners and I hope you can find them - they must be upset.

Do you have any Facebook lost found pets in your area?

Also 911 parrot alert is good place to list. Craigslist lost found in your area. You can contact a nearby shelter and report the bird too.

Sometimes, heaven sends us precious nuggets!

If anyone calls, make sure they can describe in detail the color! I wouldn't post a color, maybe say the main color of body. I would have them describe wing colors and the sex if they know.

Oh, how horrible, losing them on the 4th of July in America. All those bangs and crashes or fireworks. I hate to think how they are managing, if they even made it.

@Zara thank you I’m going to post on them to see if theirs any hits. Thank you for sending me those 2 the one he has looks similar but has white cap with bats on the neck. I’ll get a good picture when I get home. The poor birdy was so hungry and tired. He kept eating and took a nap. Guess he feels comfortable which is good !

Don't post the picture publicly though!

ok I told my fiancé when he makes posters not to add a picture.

Does the bird have a leg band on?

 

[tka]

As others have said, don't describe the bird in detail. Don't mention colour in detail, sex, whether they have a leg ring, cere colour or similar. Don't post a photo in a public space like this site, facebook, or on any posters. Sadly, unscrupulous people will try to convince you that the bird is theirs to try to get a free bird.

Do take the bird to a vet for a health check and to see whether they've been microchipped.

You can also alert local vets that you've found a bird.

Welcome to your new found Friend

Welcome to your new found Friend

I’m glad the little guy flew to the right person.

It may be that you are not able to find the birds owners, but it is noble to try.

Start thinking of arrangements now (where will the bird be housed, which cage, any other supplies you may need, extra bowls etc), and in a week or two if noone steps forward, then buy the things on your list and start transitioning the bird into your family, (or find him a new home if you cannot keep him).

When I found Aldora, I only named her one month to the day of finding her on my doorstep after failing to find her owners, she was nameless and in quarantine in my kitchen for that 4 week period.

@Hermesbird Any updates on the friendly budgie? Is he still with you?
