Recreated my original post due to the typo of my newly created email for this site. Found at the Chicago Yacht Club and Urban Kayak by E Monroe street. I was told the bird has been in the area for several days and has been posted to a Facebook group looking for its owner by the Urban Kayak team.
The budgie is 3 or months older (has a white circle around its iris) and has a white head with light grey stripes that begin by its eye. The has a light blue neck, white stomach, then repeating blue and white the further down its abdomen. They also have light grey patches on white wings with a touch of blue at the neck and back before wing. The budgie has a darker blue black and all white tail feathers. If this description fits your bird, please send the name, sex, and picture of your bird to ILoveBudgies24@yahoo.com.
I want to reassure whomever this bird belongs to that I have owned budgies and cockatiels for over 15 years and have a lot of experience caring for them. Your bird is in safe hands and will be evaluated by the vet before they return to you to ensure they are safe and healthy once you are reunited with them.
