I found someone's bird

Is it a wild bird? This board is for escaped pets — parrots, budgies, cockatiels, canaries and finches. A robin, sparrow, gull, duckling or bird of prey needs a licensed wildlife rehabilitator instead, and posting it here won't help it. Find a vet who treats birds · What to do if you found a wild bird

Bird's Name

Keep one detail to yourself. Leave one identifying feature out of this listing — a band number, an odd marking, a word it says. Ask anyone who claims to have your bird to tell you what it is. Someone holding your bird answers instantly; someone working from your listing can't answer at all. More on staying safe

Add identifying details — optional, but a leg band number can identify your bird exactly

Leg band / ring number

Spacing and dashes don't matter. This is the single strongest way to prove a match — we alert both sides immediately, at any distance.

Colour / mutation

Wings

Clipped birds rarely travel far — it changes where to search.
