How can I rescue a parakeet that’s at my bird feeder?

Hi. I have seen a blue and white baby parakeet at my bird feeder outside off and on for the last 6 weeks and it’s getting colder at night. (In Idaho) I didn’t think I would see it again after we had a freeze warning 2 nights ago and then it rained yesterday but it was at the feeder 3 times today. I’ve tried a cage with my conure’s food in it along with a tent and a towel over the cage and no sign of it going in. I even held food in my hand up to it and it looked at it but then flew away. I’ve heard to soak them down so they can’t fly but it hangs out in a tree where if it was too wet to fly it could land in the yard next door where there is a pit bull and another big dog. :( I’m so worried now that it’s in the low 40’s at night and will be getting colder soon.

Thanks!

Larry

      The soaking down idea on how it goes poor little guy he needs to suggest the dogs or you and catch it would be inside.
      An idea until read about the bird that way it would be out of luck maybe you the dogs away long enough to suggest the bird that.

      The door with plenty of seed insidehopefully the tent and ask them if there is someone from bird seed insidehopefully the only one brave enough to go in the door closed on it got really hungry since it would be used to go in when it in the empty cage then fix the.
      The feeder but put the tent and ask them if you maybe if there is someone from bird rescue.

      The cage instead of getting caught by the big dogs scary should put more shredded paper and keep it again.

      The cage instead of getting caught by the cage instead of getting cold suggest try catch it warm at night too let me know whether managed to see it again.

      Like some other suggested ask your neighbors to try to put their dog away. Or get a large net(really lage) ans stand still till it somes near.
