Blue parakeet with yellow tail and red leg band

Charleston Lost listing Posted about 1 month ago

Description

I lost my blue parakeet Sky yesterday around 3pm after he slipped from his travel cage on our balcony on Meeting Street and darted toward Waterfront Park by the Pineapple Fountain. Sky is a small blue parakeet, about the size of a soda can, with a bright yellow tail and a red leg band engraved 'SKY-01' on his left leg. He’s a bit skittish around new people, but he’s gentle once you earn his trust. This bird is a rescue and means a lot to my family—my daughter named him Sky, and we really need him back. If you spot him, please email [email protected] or reply to this listing; any information helps.

How to safely get your item back

A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.

Verify the finder before meeting
  • Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
  • Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
  • Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
  • Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
  • Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
  • Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
  • Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
  • Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
  • Share your live location with them during the handoff.
  • For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
  • Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
  • Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
  • Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
