Depends on where you live.
Most people put out birdfeeders, and I have seen a few pet store birds in with the wild ones at mine. There is also a lot of "wild food" out in the summer she can forage off of.
The first frost will kill her. They are tropical rainforest birds and can't survive cold winters.
I lived in southern California growing up and saw plenty of exotic birds living wild. There was a group of African Greys that nested in the palm trees at the grocery store we shopped at. It stays warm there though.
Put flyers up and offer a reward. If she was tame maybe someone has her. AG's are smart and she will figure out that living with people is better than doing for herself.
Good Luck

With every day pass, our country is getting into more and more trouble. The inflation, unemployment and falling value of dollar are the main concern for our Government but authorities are just sleeping, they don’t want to face the fact. Media is also involve in it, they are force to stop showing the real economic situation to the people. I start getting more concern about my future as well as my family after watching the response of our Government for the people that affected by hurricane Katrina.
According to recent studies made by World Bank, the coming crisis will be far worse than initially predicted. So if you're already preparing for the crisis (or haven't started yet) make sure you watch this video at http://www.familysurvival.tv and discover the 4 BIG issues you'll have to deal with when the crisis hits, and how to solve them fast (before the disaster strikes your town!) without spending $1,000s on overrated items and useless survival books.

Where do you live??? Depending on the temps, but also it runs the risk of being injured by the wild birds.
I am sorry to hear that you lost your bird. Was you bird real friendly so that maybe the bird would go to someone? I would contact all the Vet offices, animal control and humane socitity and let them know you lost it just in case someone has found it. That is why we really encourage our clients to keep their pet bird's wings clipped we have heard of too many incidents like this and we have also had to go on rescue runs to save a lose Parrot. Sometimes we are lucky and are able to retrive a lost bird, and there have been times when there was nothing we could do to save a lose bird.
If you are lucky enough to get your bird back please concider have it's flight feathers clipped so you won't have this happen again. I have 4 African Grays and I would be so hurt if I lost one from flying away.
Good luck , I hope you can get him back home.

I really feel for you. I have an african grey, but my goffin's cockatoo flew away on 8/14/06. I am devestated as I raised him from an egg and had him for 10 years. I really hope you find your grey, remember that they are very clever birds and can survive in the wild.

You can bet this bird is looking for you just as hard as you are lookin for her. Before she goes hungary she will fly up to someone to her likin or someone will find her at a bird feeder. The only problem with hand feed pet birds is they don't know they should run from a cat or a dog. Her wings are weak so she did not fly that far but still could have flown a few miles.
I would bet on her finding a new home and the new pet owners will take good care of her.

It is according to where you live. Does it get really cold at night? Or are they mild? Temperature and cats are the biggest problems you have. Call the vet offices around where you live and tell them you are missing the bird, also call animal control and report her missing, run an ad in the newspaper. You might be lucky and get her back. Good luck.

You probably won't find her ..................but she will find you.
Set her cage outside with the door wide open, inside put all of her favorite foods and wait .She will probably go back to her home of comfort and food, that she does'nt have to find on her own. Maybe you could set up a camera or something that does'nt make a loud sound that would alert you to her arrival Good Luck!!!

She will be able to survive for quite some time unless someone else has already bird napped her. She will become wild again and her instincts will kick in if she is still free

the probability is he won't be to some distance remote from residing house, touch the vets/posters up everywhere and save finding interior the section around your residing house, i got here across an african gray final 12 months in my acquaintances barn, he replaced into friendly, we contacted the vets and somebody were in to checklist him, so he replaced into reunited together with his proprietor, do not lose desire and save finding, you and your parrot would be back together quickly - Im confident, let us know what occurs

Depends on where you live. If the weather is warm, she will probably be fine for awhile. More will depend on how much being lost stresses her out. If she's very social, she may even just fly in someones window when she gets hungry.
