Description
I was walking home from the K-State Student Union on Saturday, around 3:40 pm, when I spotted two parrots perched on a bike rack near the campus library. They looked curious and a little tired, with bright emerald plumage and a touch of blue on their flight feathers. They hopped onto my hand, so I coaxed them into a loose pet carrier I carry in my backpack for emergencies. I stood there by the K-State Student Union, Manhattan, Kansas, and watched as people passed, unsure who they belonged to. I’m hoping this post helps reunite them with their owner through the site.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
