Lost / Found parrot. anyone lose one?

My neighbor just found a young parrot in her backyard, in the Clinton School area. She doesn't want me to say what type in case someone tries to falsely claim it. she will make calls to animal control etc. BUT... if you or someone you know has lost a bird, please let me know and I will put you in touch. My friend is an experienced bird owner and is going to do everything she can to take care of it and find a foster in the meantime. She isn't sure of it's condition yet as she just found it, out in the freezing snow. Thanks!  please contact me ASAP if you lost a parrot or know someone who did.


Here's a Craigslist post about a lost parrot in NJ, but it dates back to December:  http://cnj.craigslist.org/laf/5422898225.html  There are three other lost parrot listings, but they were lost in NY.  


Is she sure it's not a Monk Parakeet/Quaker Parrot? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monk_parakeet


the parrot is not one of these- thanks for responding- its actually full grown-


I saw the same parrot featured on Craigslist on a Instagram site called My Lost Pet Alert. He's from Mt. Laurel, NJ. Might be the one you have? They have him listed as "Gargamel" missing since 12/25. 1-844-PET-ALERT. 


I think a Tuscan mom lost a parrot recently... I'll send her this link...


This is the photo of the missing parrot - is it the same one?


Not to be obtuse, but if the bird was banded, wouldn't it be easy to find out who it belonged to? I'm not a parrot owner, but I did find a release dove once and located its owner based on the band.


The parrot has found its owner!!! A maplewood online success story! thanks all for your concern. (fyi- it was not the parrot above, hope he has a happy story and finds his home too!)


Yea love these happy stories! Maplewood/South Orange people rock! 


That made my day!  Thanks!  


I live beside Clinton and my neighbor lost a bird the other day. Flew towards Clinton School! Thi must be hers. Great news!
