Emerald-green budgie with yellow chest, leg band
Description
I found a small emerald-green budgie this morning around 9:40am outside the Logan Public Library on Main Street, near the Bean & Bloom cafe. It has a bright yellow chest, blue-tipped tail, and a red leg band with the number 42. The bird seemed a little jittery at first but was quick to hop onto a branch I held, and it chirped softly when I spoke to it. I’m posting this because I know how scary it is when a pet bird goes missing, and I’d really love to see it back with its owner. If you recognize these details, please reach out and tell me the leg band number or what color its beak looks like.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
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.
