I lost maggie tonight!!

So the punk kid calls me at work today...

Other than that NO CALLS.

MAGGIE HAS TO COME HOME... and I'm really scared now that she might not.

It's Fiesta time around here... the news doesn't have any open slots.

I'm sorry that kid is still harassing you:(

Please don't loose hope Mark. Maggie WILL come home. Remember, good things come to those who believe, better things to those who are patient, and the best things to those who never give up. I know you won't give up on her, and I know she will be reunited with you. It's not a matter of if, but when.

I'm NOT giving up. I'm just scared...

This bird has been such a major part of my life for so long, that the thought of living without her just crushes me.
 
There are a hundred scenarios in which you can get her back, there are way more good people out there than bad people. Even if someone with dishonest intentions found or finds her it will be impossible to keep her identity and how they got her hidden.

Remember, Amanda Berry in Cleveland was found after a decade of being missing, that's as horrific and painful a story ever told, and it turned out well.

You are going to get Maggie back.

Please don't think I was suggesting that at all! I know you won't give up. I can't imagine how it must feel not to have her with you or know where she is. You just have to keep believing she will come home.
 
It took 3 weeks to find tusk right?
It'll happen.
 
I'm betting if they keep her in a cage for very long, that reward money is going to start looking awfully good, because she'll probably throw an absolute fit!

Mark, do you believe it is time to increase the reward and begin to heavily publicize the amount?

Yep. I sure do. That's why I wish the TV interview would air, it would be out there... and I'd feel a lot better about my chances.

AND THAT STUPID KID JUST CALLED ME AGAIN...
 
I wonder how close he is to flirting with a stalker Law ?

He was obviously stoned again tonight. I messed with his head a little bit... He said he heard my bird calling...

So I talked him into doing bird calls over the phone... (making an a$$ of himself over the phone in front of his friends.)

It took him a minute or so to realize the tables had been turned, and the joke was now on him. (Being stoned will do that to you.)

I'm pretty sure he and his buddies were smokin' weed in the yard, again.

Then I basically told him to stop calling and hung up on him.

I keep following this thread...I'm sincerely so so sorry. I know you'll get her back...I feel it!!!! I hope they air the TV spot soon!!!

I'm keeping you in my thoughts and I hope for a speedy return of maggie to your flock.
 
A huge storm just hit. It's pouring down rain. Thunder and lightning.

I hope she's someplace safe and sheltered...

Tonight I actually hope someone has her inside...

But I want them to give her back.

I hope she is too. Perhaps if she is outside still, this will be the impetus for her to fly into someones yard and start squawking and make herself known and they will call you:)

Parrots don't have good night vision. They generally don't fly at night. Squawking at night makes you a sitting duck for predators, so I love your line of thought, but it isn't likely.

I don't think she's still loose. I think someone already found her.

Tonight, that's actually a good thing.
 
Mark, are you also checking other sites besides craigslist for listings? I googled red macaw for sale (I suppose that is how a non bird person might describe her), and found listings on places like hoobly etc. Far away from what it seems you are, but they might list her there if they have family or are out of your area? Also on a site called oodle someone put a greenwing up 5 days ago.

Also don't forget about the new site(s) that you can snap a photo from your smartphone and with one click put an item for sale. I can't think of the name of said site right now, but I would assume it is searchable.
 
I'm so sorry, I wish you all the best luck :(

The first parrot I ever lost was only found because of the flyers I put up for her. She had flown into a school and was taken home by the janitor. One of the students found a flyer and showed his dad, who contacted me. She was missing for over a week by the time I got that call, she had been flying free until she got hungry and flew down to the school for food!

There are lots of those apps, unfortunately.

The ones I can think of right now are:
* Gone
* Offer Up
* SellSimple
* Wallapop
 
I keep checking back hoping for good news. We're standing behind you , Mark. I'm sorry she hasn't turned up yet, but just keep faith.
