Navy blue US passport in leather sleeve

I lost my navy blue US passport yesterday around 4pm outside the Prudential Center on Boylston Street in Boston. It's a standard passport booklet, a bit worn with a thin black leather sleeve. The cover has a small crease on the lower edge and there's a coffee stain on the back of the sleeve. It contains important documents and sentimental value; I really need it back for an upcoming trip, and I'm worried about the time I have left.

Silver flute in black case with dent near lip plate

Yesterday around 3pm my silver Yamaha student flute went missing. I was outside the Boston Public Library in Copley Square, near the Boylston Street entrance by the fountain. The flute is silver with light scratches on the bell and a small dent near the lip plate; the case is a black hard-shell with a panda sticker on the inside lid, and there's a blue microfiber cloth tucked in the pocket. It was a gift from my grandmother, so it has sentimental value and I'm really hoping to get it back for band practice this week. If you found it, email me at [email protected]; I’d be forever grateful.

Gold-tone heart pendant necklace with ruby

I lost my gold-tone heart pendant necklace yesterday around 3pm on Newbury Street near the Boston Public Garden's Arlington Street entrance. It's a slender 16-inch chain with a small ruby set in the center of a heart pendant, and the back is engraved with 'MZ.' There's a tiny wear mark near the clasp. This necklace was a gift from my grandmother and has a lot of sentimental value; I really need it back. If you’ve seen it or picked it up, please reach out—I'll be forever grateful to get it back.

Black iPhone 12 Pro with cracked screen

I lost my black iPhone 12 Pro with a cracked screen and a clear case yesterday around 3pm. I was wandering through the Boston Public Garden near the Arlington Street entrance, then headed toward Commonwealth Ave by the Public Library when it slipped from my pocket. It’s a digital media device with photos and work stuff on it, and I really need it back. It has a small dent on the bottom edge and a lime-green sticker with my initials 'PP' on the back; the screen is cracked in the upper-right corner, but it still powers on. This phone means a lot to me and it’s sentimental to me.

Hand-painted ceramic vase with cobalt blue pattern

I lost my hand-painted ceramic vase yesterday around 3pm. It's about 8 inches tall, white glaze with cobalt blue geometric patterns and a thin gold rim; there's a tiny chip on the rim. On the bottom is a small pencil inscription that reads LK 2019 and a faint Studio L stamp. I last remember having it near the entrance to the Boston Public Library on Boylston Street, probably on a bench outside while I grabbed coffee across the street. This vase was a gift from my grandmother and holds sentimental value; I’d really appreciate getting it back.

Black rectangular glasses with silver hinges

I found a pair of black rectangular glasses this afternoon around 3:15pm on the sidewalk outside the Boston Public Library on Copley Square, near the Boylston Street entrance. They’re matte black plastic frames with silver hinges and clear lenses that have a few tiny scratches from wear. Inside the right temple, there’s a small engraving that reads 'A.J. 02,' which could help identify the owner. I know how important these little things are for reading and daily sight, so I’m hoping to reunite them with whoever lost them—if these are yours, describe the engraving and where you last wore them.

Blue-green parrotlet found near Boston Public Library

I found a small blue-green parrotlet this afternoon around 3:15pm, perched on a railing outside the Boston Public Library’s McKim Building on Boylston Street near Copley Square. It’s about the size of a robin, mostly teal with a bright yellow belly and a tiny red beak. There’s a light blue leg band on its right leg engraved with '23-AL.' It seemed friendly and hopped onto my finger for a moment before scolding at me with a chirp. I’d really hate for someone to worry about it—losing a pet bird would be awful. If this is yours, I’m happy to help arrange a meetup near the library or at a nearby vet clinic to verify ownership.

Found turquoise Nintendo Switch Lite near Boston Common

I found a turquoise Nintendo Switch Lite in a black silicone case this afternoon around 2:15pm behind the Starbucks on Tremont Street, just a block from Boston Common. It's in pretty good condition, with a clean screen and only a couple of light scratches on the back plus a tiny dent near the charging port. There's a small fox sticker on the back and a blue silicone grip on the right side, which should help identify it if you own one. If this belongs to you, I’d love to help get it back—let me know a safe place to meet near Park Street Station, or we can arrange pickup nearby.

Tan leather tote with gold hardware found near Faneuil Hall

I found a tan pebbled leather tote this afternoon around 2:45pm outside Quincy Market/Faneuil Hall on Congress Street. It's a Michael Kors tote, about 12x14 inches, with gold-tone hardware and a pink satin lining. There's a small scrape on the bottom corner and a blue ink initial 'A.J.' scribbled inside the inner pocket—a tiny detail that could help the owner identify it. The bag has a simple leather strap with an adjustable buckle and a faint coffee scent. I picked it up because someone must be missing it, and I’d want someone to help get it back to its owner. If this matches your bag, use the app to verify the identifying features.

Found budgie with blue cheeks near Boston Public Garden

I found this bright budgie this afternoon around 2:15pm while I was walking near the Boston Public Garden, outside the Beacon Street entrance by Arlington Street. It’s mostly lime-green with a sunny yellow head and tiny blue cheek patches that stand out in the sun. One leg has a small copper band engraved 'BH-12', and the tail feathers look a bit roughed from a recent flight. I’d hate for it to be lost for good—pets birds mean a lot, and I hope their owner sees this. If you’re the owner, please email me at [email protected] and we can arrange a meetup near the Public Garden or Common.
