Dear Chris, We need your help. A friend lives in the Groton, NY area and she and her husband have lost their 1-year-old African Grey Parrot. His name is Makamae, (Maki for short) and he flew off 3 weeks ago. He's lost in the woods and they are desperately looking for him. Yesterday, he was sighted in the Branchport area near Penn Yan, New York. Andrew Mason gave me your contact info and suggested that you may be able to post it on your wild bird list. Is there anyone in your area or club that has some time to help them find this bird? They are so devastated. Please let people know. He is a Congo African Grey Parrot. His is dark gray on the back, light gray/whitish looking on the breast with white face and a red tail. He's lost and terrified. If you see anything or can get people to help or can spread the word, their number is 607-533-7096. Their names are Marion and Gil Ferrer. Their cell is 607-592-4201. They are up there in the area looking for Maki now. Here is a link to the site they have created: http://www.findingmakamae.com/98933876 Thank you so much for taking the time to read my note.
