Shhhhhhhh....

I'm trying to catch a parakeet in my back yard that appeared yesterday morning.

This kept me up last night worrying about it being the Cooper's hawk's dinner. Plus I think I have zero chance of doing this.

I have put a cage in the back yard. I'm hoping he hops in.
I just bought the cage because, well, I'm not good with letting something die.
I'm not sure if this parakeet will willingly go back in a cage but I can't think  of another way to try.

A few years ago a beautiful canary was in the yard two days and then was toast. A dinner for something.
By the time I got an idea of what to do it was too late. I figure this bird was accidentally released.

I have a broken computer so I can't post pics.
Wish me luck.
