Lost bird help

I found a bird this moring outside on my balcony. It took him/her inside and him/her did not look so good. Could anyone tell me what kind of bird it is? http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/231/img0706c.jpg/

We don't have any vets here on the site and it's usually recommended you don't ask for any medical advice around here at the forums since people can easily misdiagnose. The best thing to do would be to see a vet for the birdy to check. If anything you can request too that it's owner pay you back for the vet bills in exchange for saving the bird. As for living with other birds, I don't see why not as long as you have a separate cage for them.

That looks a bit like a parrot to me. o_O Not your everyday find.. put a "Found" poster up here and there around town in case anyone lost a birdy? If it is a parrot then it's probably an expensive bird. Take it to a vet too perhaps?

Edit: The poster's guess below being a lovebird might be more accurate than mine. A vet could probably tell you what it really is.
