Found parakeet hopping around in traffic near Bway and Cedar. Had clipped wings, likely to get hit. Now carrying frightened parakeet in bucket. :( Knocked on doors w open windows but no luck. Animal cntrl closed till Monday. Halp!?

EDIT: got ahold of vet friend, who came by to assist. Unfortunately, turns out bird (which she says is actually a budgie) didn't have clipped wings, was just tired from the escape (and/or kinda dumb) when I caught it. So, errr.... it got out when she opened the bucket. :/. Good news is that vet says it'll be safe and healthy in this climate, so... enjoy your new budgie, neighborhood?

Seriously, sorry if it was yours. We tried. :/

dang, I have a bird cage from my old cockateil that died. Would have been great to hold the critter in til it's home was found. Hope it's ok.

If I had lost a little budgie, I'd be *infinitely* happier to know it is now flying around free somewhere in S'ville, and not stuck to the bottom of someone's tires.

YaY on your for the rescue!

I keep a full bird feeder out back. Maybe she'll find it and have a nice meal.

(Sorry, this is my only bird icon.)

There's a bird store in McGoun Square. Maybe it escaped from there? Or from someone who bought a bird from there?
