A male budgerigar, which was missing and later captured at a hotel in Sagamihara, Kanagawa Prefecture, has been safely returned to its owner, after the pet parakeet told police its home address, authorities said May 2. The budgerigar fled from a 64-year-old woman's home in Sagamihara early morning April 29. The pet bird was later captured at the nearby hotel after it perched on the shoulder of a male guest, according to police. The bird was turned over to the police, which kept it in a cage. Late on May 1, the budgerigar suddenly began to repeat an address, prompting the police to contact the owner, they said. (Kyodo News)
