DAVIDSON, NC — Social media is blamed for a lot of things in our modern society, and Tuesday turned into a force of good when it came to reuniting a lost cockatiel with its owner. A beautiful gray and yellow cockatiel was found on the Davidson College campus Monday and town officials posted a notice in hopes of locating its owner. Said the Town of Davidson: "A couple of young residents found a cockatiel on the Davidson College campus yesterday, at the labyrinth in Hobart Park. Since it was so cold, the kids brought the bird home. This lovely creature doesn't belong to any students on campus, but we assume it's someone's pet. Anyone recognize this friendly face?" By early Tuesday afternoon and after dozens of comments, the case was solved when the beautiful bird was identified as Pony Boy. Pony Boy's brother, Johnny, also reportedly flew the coop, and was found around Highway 3 in Mooresville Monday. "I am just in total shock that my boys have been found safe and unharmed," a woman by the name of Angie said on the Town of Davidson Facebook post. "THANK YOU ALL again. I can't express enough how happy I am in my soul."
