Update - Missing Lovebird - found as an agenl bird
I had two phone calls today to let me know that she was seen on the Makara Peak track, hopping on the Council worker's bicycle tyre at lunchtime, so I went to look for her, but she was not found. I came home and made more flyers and distributed them around the location where she was seen. Then I had a second phone call to tell me that she was found, but sadly, she was an angel at 7 pm. I had never thought that she could come back home. I did not give up on finding her because everybody's support from the community kept me going. She is now at home, sleeping in her hammock in her cage as she used to do instead of sleeping in the cold forest. Thank you so much for your care and support. She loved flying. Now she can fly high up in the sky to go over the rainbow.
