Tearful owner 'feels sick' as her parrot Chanel flies away AGAIN

A tearful owner whose pet parrot Chanel escaped in April last year has said her beloved bird has flown off once again.

The Houdini-like parrot became famous at the start of the first lockdown when her owner, Sandra, released a viral video crying and shouting for her return while walking around the streets of Netherton.

Yesterday, Sandra uploaded another video saying Chanel - an African Grey parrot - had managed to get out again, reports The Mirror.

Chanel is believed to be on the loose somewhere in Liverpool.

In an emotional video, Sandra said: “Chanel flew off again.

"Please, she definitely went on the canal somewhere...I don’t know what to do but if anyone sees her, you know what she’s like.

"She’ll be scared. She’s gone.”

Sandra added that she "feels sick" and apologised for "doing this again”.

A video of her calling for Chanel went viral last year and prompted hundreds of memes.

Sandra was seen pleading for the return of her beloved pet, saying: “Please everyone...my parrot’s gone”.

She then bellowed the parrot's name at the top of her lungs.

In response to the latest video, one supporter wrote: "F*** sake Chanel what you playing at.

I’m going to jump in my car and go on a hunt for her." Another wrote: "I hope you find her."

Speaking to online magazine Tyla earlier this year, Sandra said: "Chanel is such a little diva.

"And I'm still recognised as the crazy parrot lady.

Even this morning I was walking around and someone was like - 'You're the Chanel parrot lady!'"
