Call any and all avian vets... Remember that U of I Chicago has one of the best avian vet schools in the nation.
Call Greater Chicago Bird club. They can get the message out.
Call any avian rescue you can find. Rescue for Saving Wild Life is one of them.
Call the county rescues, they will put your number up.
Call radio stations that will announce lost pets for free... Think WGN will. Send email's with pics to the local TV stations, they may announce it on the morning news
If you have another bird, make a recording of it, and keep it playing out the window for a half hour at a time. Posters, posters, posters Everywhere within a one mile radius.
Walk around calling. Ask Kids (with parents permission) to look.

Keeping you in prayer. ((hugs))

Great news!!!! Tucker was found and is now home! He made his way to a zoo that was at least 9 blocks away. He crawled up the leg of a maintenence worker and nestled in next his neck on his shoulder. The zoo called me this morning and I went and picked him up. We just got back from the vet. He's doing good, just very tired and hungry.

Thank you to everyone for your support!
