Large plastic parrot back at Saskatoon Earls after weekend spent atop Traffic Bridge

Big Blue, the plastic parrot, is back at Earls Restaurant in Saskatoon after spending the weekend perched atop the Traffic Bridge.

Someone managed to move the 40-kilogram parrot from his rooftop home at the 2nd Avenue restaurant to the upper girders on the bridge.

It's no mean feat, given that the parrot was more than two storeys up on the restaurant roof and that the Traffic Bridge is under construction.

Jacquelyn Rogne, the office manager at Earls, saidit's not the first time Big Blue has taken a flyer.

"We always get him back. I guess he always tries to find his way home," she said.

Rogne said staff are still trying to puzzle through the logistics.

"He's quite heavy, I'm not even aware how they got him down. I'd be interested myself to find out. Or how they got him up there would be even more difficult," she said.

Alyson Edwards with Saskatoon Police said they'reaware of what happened, but theyhaven't receiveda formal complaint.
