Hello! As per my last thread, I caught a lovebird who had been roaming free in Manhattan for months. I have been unable to find his owner, so I am looking for a new home for him. I figured I'd post his information here as well, in case there is anyone who would be interested in taking him.
"This Fischer's Lovebird is a pet escapee that has been living with a flock House Sparrows in Morninside Park in Manhattan, NY. He was first sighted around May 2020, and managed to survive. He was fortunately captured in October 2020. His information has been posted on multiple sites on the internet, but his owner has yet to step forward and claim him, so it is time to find him a new home. This lovebird has been thriving outside, with lots of flying and interacting with other birds. He really enjoys that sort of life, and I would like him to achieve something as close to that as possible in his new home. He would not do well alone in a standard-sized cage. He does not enjoy interactions with humans (he is very fearful). A large enclosure (like an aviary) with other lovebirds would be the best outcome for him. Also, I have no information on age, sex, or past history."
I am currently in NYC, but I will be spending the winter in Maryland. I am willing to drive up to 4 hours from Maryland starting in December to drop him off, if there is anyone within that radius who could provide a suitable home for this lovebird. I will be asking for a reasonable rehoming fee.

I just haven't had anyone reach out to me through that yet. I will check out the Facebook group though, thanks!
