Lost Blue-Crowned Conure - Austin, Texas - November 18, 2007

My Blue-Crowned Conure, Django (the D is silent, it's pronounced Jango), was lost on Sunday, November 18th at sunset in the Allendale area of Austin, TX, between Steck and 183, on Shoal Creek Blvd.

I saw him a day after his escape, perched toward the top of a 90' tree. Since then, I haven't seen or definitively heard a word.

He is small-medium, with a green body, blue head and maroon underside of his tail. He has a white eye ring around his eyes. His eyes are copper colored. His upper beak is bone colored, his lower beak black.

Django is an excellent talker and will say his name, Djang-Djang, Pi-Pi (his Sun Conure buddy with whom he shares his home), give me a kiss, it's the kitty, etc.

He is not just a part of my family, he is my best friend, and I feel like a piece of me is missing. I have not been able to eat or sleep since he was lost. I will be forever indebted to anyone who returns him to me.

If you find him, just put your hand out and say "Step-up, Django". He will step right up for you. Any information, please call (512) 769-0251.

I am so sorry about your parrot.I too own a blue crown and lived in south east TX for eight years before coming out to Utah in the mountains. There are so many predators that would make short work of a parrot. I hope for both your sakes that your bird has found a good home and survived flying away without a mishap. As for you, go find a new blue crown. Life is short. I have had Chuckles, my blue crown for 18 years. We have traveled extensively by car, camper and truck. She loves me. I love her. Get a new bird. Keep it safe. Life goes on. Say a prayer for your friend.
