An emergency search is underway to find a pet parrot in the Ballindrait area of Donegal.
The two year old female African grey parrot got out of its home at 3.45pm today (Tuesday).
Her name is Hedwig, and her owner Rebecca Doherty is extremely concerned.
“She’s a purely indoor bird with absolutely no sense so if you see her contact me ASAP!,” Rebecca said.
“Her name is Hedwig and she’s close with Pepper (my dog) so if you say either of those things she may respond.”
People are being advised not to approach Hedwig in case it may scare her off.
“She’s nervous of strangers so please DO NOT APPROACH if out in there open and contact me instead. If you see her in your shed or something close the door and contact me ASAP as she will nip when she’s scared of someone she doesn’t know,” said Rebecca.
