Wild Parrot Loose in New Jersey - 2007/10/14 19:27 Help
I need your expertise.
Every day I walk my dogs Lola and Annie past a school. The other day I saw a flash of blue and white which then landed on a fence. It was a small blue Budgerigar. The following link will bring you to a page with a picture of the bird. It is the blue one.

I have been trying to catch him and get two feet away at times. He seems to think he is a sparrow as I have observed him flying in their pack. Can anyone tell me how to go about capturing this bird? It is soon to turn really cold here in New Jersey and I doubt if this little fellow will make the winter. Please feel free to phone me at 732 458 7011 or e mail me at MickeyYak1@comcast.net
Many Thanks
Mike and Sandy

The catching of birds is a tricky business. One also needs to be lucky and very often the birds will get away anyway. But have you ever tried using a net on a stick (am not sure about how they're called) but the following is a picture of what I mean:
