Mr. Sebring travels south for the winter, just like the snowbirds. He leaves Judith Ann and Alma, his daughter and granddaughter, in charge of Pipsqueak and Pumpkin. Pipsqueak, the parakeet, escapes. Seeing a few green feathers on the floor, Judith Ann and Alma are worried that Pumpkin, the cat, may have eaten Pipsqueak. When they tell Mr. Sebring what they think happened, Mr. Sebring says, Never! Pumpkin would never eat Pipsqueak! Then a strange thing happens. Sally and Brad, residents in Mr. Sebring's home town, spy a lime green parakeet in their backyard. The parakeet stays in their yard for several days, along with the hummingbirds, orioles, finches and other local birds. Sally and Brad love having the parakeet, they fondly call Pete, hang out in their yard, but they worry what will happen to Pete when it gets too cold and the birds migrate south for the winter. When the cold begins to set in and the other birds leave, so does Pete. Sally and Brad reach out to try to find Pete and his owner. Using posters and posts on Facebook, they follow Pete's great escapade from Ames, Iowa to Tucson, Arizona. You, too, can follow Pete. Join in their fun and track the grand adventure of a truly remarkable pet bird, Pete, the Parakeet.
