I caught him at a school near 11th St and Lisenby.  My initial assessment was that he had been loose for at least a week, based on feeling his breastbone and how prominent it was.  I put up fliers at the pet stores in town and while doing that, one of the store owners said she had seen the bird near Harrison Ave in the downtown area a week earlier, (probably 5 miles away?), so that confirmed my suspicion of how long he had been out.

So far, he has only made the typical (Parrot) noises and has not yet spoken.  He does not have a band.  He seems a tad bit on the small side, so GUESSING his age, I would say he is probably young.  He did bite me several times during capture, which I had expected.  But, although he broke the skin, I know very well what a (Parrot) beak is capable of and these were not serious bites, ESPECIALLY considering that a stranger was pulling him off a rooftop and not letting go.

Feel free to repost my ad and pass that information on to anyone, but I would ask that you not give any of the extra info that I have given you to anyone, again, to avoid scams.  My wife and I love birds and have had many pet birds.  We even ran a pet store for about 5 years, until the economy went bad.  So, we are very familiar with birds and their needs.  We even had a spare cage handy and ready to go (although this cage  is slightly small for a permanent home, but adequate for a temporary home).

We would love to find this bird’s home, but if we cannot, he will be a welcome and very loved addition to our family.

Thanks again for your help.
