Loose Parrot

I was walking Lily down my street when I spotted a gorgeous sunset colored parrot high up on the electrical wires. Is that your bird, I asked the woman looking up. Yes, he got out through my broken screen door. I must've startled him. When I came back two hours later she was still there but she also had a friend and her birds cage and a dish of sunflower seeds. They were tossing a stick up at him and he was squawking. I'll go home and look on-line there must be something about what to do, I said. I found a bunch of instructions. My three sourdough loaves are baking and they overflowed, the drips are burning on the bottom setting off all of my smoke alarms. What about the parrot? I have to air out my house before I can go back and tell them what I found out.
October 17th, 2016 Update: Parrot is safe at home. He flew to a low perch and the owner captured him.
