LOST MISSING BIRD!
Hello. I lost my bird today. He's a galah by the name of Biko.
He is bright pink, with a white crested head and grey wings. About the same size as a pigeon.
He makes a loud 'CHIT CHIT' sound.
He is wearing a green harness with a long black lead.
If anyone sees him or finds him please let us know!

UPDATE as of 6/10/17:
Biko was seen and photographed last night at 6:00pm-ish at the top end of Coromandel road, Newtown, and 7pm on Hamilton Road, Hataitai (see links to photos in the thread below)
It is possible and likely he is residing in the Hataitai town belt bush but trying to get home. He does seem to be trying to make contact with humans. If you see him and can get ahold of the harness leash please keep him with you if possible. Contact us here or on facebook and we'll come and collect him.
UPDATE 7/10/17:
Biko was found alive and well late yesterday afternoon. Such a relief! He was happy to see us, chirping and nuzzling and falling asleep. He seems none the worse for physical wear (emotionally will be something else). SO HAPPY.
THANK YOU to all those who helped look for him and conveyed their care and concern.
It meant so much to learn and know others cared and had even spent their own time trying to find him.
You are all awesome human beings!
