Description
I lost my yellow-green budgie yesterday around 3pm near Pullman Square in downtown Huntington. It's a small parakeet, about 5 inches from beak to tail, mostly yellow-green with a cobalt-blue tail and an orange beak. It wears a blue leg band with the code A12 and has a faint white crescent on its left wing. It’s been with me since last year and helps me get through rough days—truly a sentimental companion. The bird was out of its light-blue travel cage and may be stressed, so please keep an eye out near apartments along 7th Street and the riverfront path by Pullman Square.

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.
