They flew away once more before being traced to a field and public footpath in nearby Brampton.
The two parrots, named Lily and Margot, did not return to their enclosure on 21 October after their usual routine of flying freely, and were subsequently missing for six days until zookeepers were able to track down the missing blue-throated macaws in Cambridgeshire.The parrots are believed to be in quarantine at London zoo, and are due to return back with their parents who are also at the zoo once their quarantine period is finished.
Previous to this incident, Lily and Margot would take minor detours when flying around the zoo to explore the trees but this was the first time that they had completely disappeared for as long as six days.
