0:00I'm Cory with the story, and this is your Pulse of the City, Lester News today. A clever African grey parrot with a red tail has gone missing in the Sproxon area near Melton in Lestershire. This bird is famous for mimicking sounds like the McDonald's theme tune, reversing Lori Beeps, microwave noises, and fire alarms. It also loves shouting hello at the top of its voice. The owner, named Noah, is making a desperate plea for help to get the parrot back home safely. Both police from the Lestershire and Rutland rural policing team have shared an urgent appeal, asking people to watch for it in hedgerows, trees, gardens, barns, and paddocks. Folks in the area are being told to listen carefully, since the parrot's calls will likely give it away before it's spotted. The police note that these countryside spots are prime places for the bird to hide out. If you see or hear it, experts say do not chase the parrot as that could scare it off. Instead, stay back, mark the spot precisely, and report it right away for the best chance
