PS if someone does keep him and at least tell me i'll be sad, yet happy he is still alive. i just lost my cockatiel bob on June 2nd and we’ve tried all of this advice and i am hoping since this is day 3 that he will at least go on a neighbors yard and possibly that neighbor could call my number on the fliers but other then that yea i hope this advice works.

There is no way to describe the horror of watching your bird fly off. I am still hopeful that my Cocoa, being so friendly, made a soft landing into the lives of a sympathetic animal lover. I'll bet every uncomfortable hour of your vigil was worthwhile to you. Something that people don't realize is that while a bird ascends easily, the descent is much harder and trickier. Birds that are unaccustomed to real flight, like those in our homes, are very often too afraid and too confused to get themselves down, even though they desperately want to. I'm glad you had a happy ending. Patty Zeta,
