Today the sun is shinning and there is a slight breeze - great day for cleaning house and doing yard work - well in the middle of all this DH calls me and tells me he wants to take me on a date tonight ( we have been having marriage problems etc.. ) so I am now trying to get the house/yard work done ASAP so I can get myself cleaned up and dolled up , well I go to feed my 2 yr old peach faced lovebird - who has one of those cages where you have to liftup a seed cover to get to her bowls - I feed her and go about my day I open the front door and go outside leaving the door open - something I must do 1000 times a day - well right above my head I hear the little flapping of my lovebirds wings as she flys right out the door -- I look at her cage and realize I FORGOT to put the seed cover back - she pushed the bowl out of its place and got out of the cage.
This is NOT a people friendly bird - hates to be held - I saw her fly from tree to tree but staying pretty low I can get right up to her and she takes off.
So I got her cage and placed it out side with the door open with plenty of food and water. I have seen her land in the chicken yard twice and have been able to get a hair away from picking her up before she takes off again.
I was able to hear her in the trees, but now it is getting harder to hear her or see her, I placed her cage on the ground in the chicken yard where she has landed a few times - but I really dont hold much hope of her coming back.
I have tons of birds around my house everything from Doves, Bluejays, Sparrows, and some kind of black bird the size of a small banty hen.
What are her chances out in the wild if she never comes home?
If I was not in such a rush I would have remembered to put that stupid seed cover thing back
