Lost Pet, Happy Ending
Unfortunately, when pet goes missing, the ending is often not happy. This is especially true when the pet in question is a bird. While dogs and cats are predators, most birds are prey -- it's not unheard of for pet birds outside to be captured by a hawk. They also do not fare well with temperature extremes.
Fortunately, Pearl the cockatiel was found and returned home after five days in the wild -- pretty good for a small bird, especially one that is ten years old and managed to get a pretty good distance from home.
