@BellaTravaglini @chrisstIawrence @HelloCoffee17 What rangers?

@chrisstIawrence @HelloCoffee17 No! Can you please call the rangers? Here is their #212-360-2774. Or maybe the fire dept? Poor kitty

Thank you so much for covering our work to get Mei Mei to sanctuary! 🧡 @nypost

@DaniStone2 Hi, haven’t for awhile, just on insta. aw thanks for asking!

@r2junot Hi r u no longer posting on Bluesky ? 😕

Cont Great Horned Owl seen Saturday 11/30 in Central Park. Thanks to Bruce Yolton for showing me this GHO which he found by tracking sign (whitewash).

@theanimalvoters @BagelsAndWalks emailed you

@theanimalvoters @BagelsAndWalks Pls DM!

With excitement and great relief, I am happy to share that JP @r2junot successfully rescued Mei Mei this morning. What a beautiful story of resilience. 1,000 thank you’s to everybody who helped and took an interest. Central Park, New York City #birdcpp #birdtwitter #centralpark

@BagelsAndWalks Thanks Sean! Couldn't have done this without you! 🙏

@r2junot What a tremendous relief! Thank you!

I rescued Mei Mei the Parakeet just after 9am today Wed 10/29. Took her to CAEM (avian vet) but they advise a prelim quarantine as I expected. Home safe w/me now. Couldn't have done this w/out @BagelsAndWalks & so many others. It took a village. Goal = rehome to budgie aviary.

@WendyWillsTX @BagelsAndWalks Thanks so much 🙏 actually @BagelsAndWalks literally saved her life by flushing her off the West Drive a couple days ago. Literally could not gave rescued her without him. Mei Mei is such a sweet girl. 🦜🌈

@r2junot @BagelsAndWalks It's such a relief to know she's safe! I know I speak for many when I say THANK YOU for putting the time, energy, and focus into rescuing her. You saved her life!

@WendyWillsTX @BagelsAndWalks 💯

@BagelsAndWalks @r2junot I'm imagining the stories Mei Mei could tell. I'm sure they would be fascinating.

@Clayspace831 🙏🦉

@r2junot Gorgeous

@WendyWillsTX @BagelsAndWalks Hi Wendy jp here she/her 🦜 the way @BagelsAndWalks & I did this was to track her & wait till she slowed down enough to capture. Her reaction time was slow today. I used Bagels' method of walking past on the Drive so she didn't suspect & tossed a net down. She's safe & warm now!

@BagelsAndWalks @r2junot Any info on how they were able to do it?

🔊 Mei Mei the Parakeet in her quarantine cage eating millet. She also has seeds & fresh water. She's tired & we are resting quietly. Can't wait till the day she's rehomed in an aviary & can fly & play w/other birds. Updates tk on insta: @ r2junot.

@RTPallardy @BagelsAndWalks @NancyCatLover @FionaMacmurphy @BirdCentralPark Wildlife rehabbers only work w/native birds. @wildbirdfund doesn't rescue/rehab non-native, domestic birds. Their founder & another local rehabber both told me in Aug that it's nearly impossible to capture a bird who is eating & flying well. We can rescue her when she slows down.

Thrilled to see Mei Mei the budgie back in Central Park. Thx to Claudia who spotted her here again and JP @r2junot who tracks her daily. Addl thx to all who watched for her in Morningside Park. The effort continues! Central Park, New York City #birdcpp #birdtwitter #centralpark
