Blue field guide to local birds
I found a blue paperback field guide to local birds this afternoon around 3:15pm in the parking lot behind the Greenfield Public Library on Main Street in Western Massachusetts. It's a Peterson Field Guide to Birds of New England, about 350 pages, with a creased spine and a coffee stain on the back cover. Inside the front cover there's a pencil doodle of a hummingbird and a small handwritten note that says 'For M. Rivera' with a date from last summer. The book has dog-eared pages near the Warblers section and a faint sticker from Greenfield Public Library on the back. If this is yours, drop me a message here and we can arrange a pickup.
Navy blue travel neck pillow with red heart sticker
I lost my navy blue memory-foam travel neck pillow yesterday around 3pm near the Gazebo at the Northampton Town Common on Main Street in Northampton, MA. It's a well-used pillow from a generic brand, slightly dented on one side, and it has a small red heart sticker on the strap plus a faint lavender scent. It’s sentimental to me because it came from a friend who traveled with me last summer. If you found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back—email me at [email protected] and we can arrange a pickup near Main Street.
Gold-tone hoop earrings with moonstone charms
I lost my gold-tone hoop earrings with moonstone charms yesterday around 3pm near The Green Street Café on Main Street in Northampton. They’re tiny hoops about 12mm across, each with a delicate moonstone teardrop dangled from the hoop. One charm has a tiny blue flash in direct sunlight, and the hoop itself has light wear from daily use. The left earring has a barely noticeable scratch on the outside edge. They were a gift from my sister last year and mean a lot to me—I wear them almost every day. If anyone found them, I’m really hoping to get them back; they’re sentimental and I really need them back.
Gold ring with sapphire, engraved inside
I lost my gold ring yesterday around 3pm near Thornes Market on Main Street in Northampton. It’s a slim 14k yellow gold band, about 3mm wide, with a small bezel-set sapphire that catches the light. Inside the band there’s an engraving 'P.P.' and a couple of tiny scratches from daily wear. The ring was a gift from my grandmother and means the world to me, so I’m really hoping it’s found. I was walking toward City Hall Park after grabbing coffee when I realized it was gone. If anyone found it, please reach out — I’d be forever grateful.
Found cockatiel: gray with yellow crest
I found a cockatiel this afternoon around 3:15pm near the Forest Park entrance on Belmont Ave in Springfield, MA. It's a gray bird with a bright yellow crest and orange cheek patches, and it has a tiny silver leg band engraved 'MA-304'. The bird seemed calm, perched on the grass near the carousel, and it doesn't appear hurt or scared, just curious. It clearly belongs to someone since it’s well cared for, and I’m hoping to reunite it with its owner. If this sounds like your bird, the band number and that distinctive crest are good identifiers.
Navy North Face parka with faux-fur hood
I lost my navy blue North Face parka, men's large, with a removable faux-fur hood, yesterday around 3pm near Thornes Marketplace on Main Street in Northampton, Western Massachusetts. It's in decent condition overall, but the faux-fur hood is a little matted from rain. There's a small coffee stain on the inner lining near the chest pocket, and the bright red lining makes it easy to spot. This jacket has sentimental value because it was a gift from my mom, and I really need it back before winter. If you found it, please drop me a note at [email protected]—I’d be forever grateful to be reunited with it.
Blue hardcover field guide to Northeast birds
I lost my blue hardcover field guide to birds of the Northeast yesterday around 3pm near the Northampton Public Library on Main Street.

Inside, there's a faded sticker under the front flyleaf with my initials PP and a note I wrote when I first bought it; also there's a folded map tucked in the back pocket. It matters to me because it was a gift from my late grandfather, and I use it for weekend birding trips around the Valley. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back so I can keep exploring.

Hand-painted cobalt vase, 10 inches tall
I lost my hand-painted ceramic vase yesterday around 3pm near the Smith College Campus Center on Main Street in Northampton. It's a handmade Riverbend Pottery piece, glazed cobalt blue with tiny gold speckles and a slightly irregular rim. It's about 10 inches tall and 5 inches across at the widest point, and there's a small mark on the base that reads 'A. Rivera.' The glaze has a subtle crackle, and the piece is otherwise in good condition. It was a gift from my grandmother and means a lot to me — I'm really hoping someone picked it up and can help me get it back. If you found it, drop me a note here so I can verify the base mark.

It has a wooden lid knob and, on the bottom, a pencil-mark initial 'L' that looks like someone’s ID.
