Sightings of an African grey parrot that disappeared on May 7 have been reported around Nanaimo

Calling out “Want a cashew?” or “Gimme a kiss” could be the key to getting Lyric the African grey parrot safely back home.

There have been dozens of reported sightings in the Nanaimo area since Lyric went missing on May 7, Hambleton said, including one on a wire on St. George Street and another near the emergency department at Nanaimo Regional General Hospital. Hambleton said the Nanaimo sightings started soon after Lyric disappeared from her home in Courtenay.

“I think the only plausible would be that someone found her in Courtenay, and they were driving down the Island and she escaped from them,” she said.Hambleton said she has had Lyric, who is eight years old, for about a year, noting African greys can live to be 80. Some of the sightings could be of pigeons or doves, Hambleton said, but a bird has been seen that has been positively identified as an African grey.
