Parrots in london.?
i live in south london. (nearly kent) and i swear i saw a group of big green birds flyinh around. what are these and why are they here?
Answers:
They are ring necked parakeets which escaped from an aviary in north Surrey sometime in the 70's They have been colonising and spreading eversince.
they r being driven out of their own habitats.. by humans and deforestation.
They are green paroquets and very noisey they hang around in flocks in a certain place for a few months and then move on. I think they're cute.
They maybe Monk Parakeets, originally from Argentina or could be Rose-ringed Parakeets. They are originally from India. People kept these birds as pets and they escaped or were released. They have become established in several areas near London. My father-in-law sees both kinds in Boreham Wood from time to time.
They are called parakeets because they have longer tails. They are a lot bigger than budgies, which in states are called parakeets. People always think of members of the parrot family being tropical, but both these species are very adaptable and able to survive cold temperatures.
There are parrots in Edgewater, New Jersey, US. They've been there for several years. There are several theories on how they arrived but no one really knows.
are you sure they are not woodpeckers
There are a whole colony of parakeets in Hampstead Heath.
Parrots have been around my home in West London now for several years. At first people thought that those how claimed to see them were making it up and these parrots became at bit of an urban myth. A few years ago the BBC ran a discussion on these parrots on their website – have a look as it should tell you all you need to know.
They have continued to grow in numbers as they have bred and they now go a lot further a field than they used to so they could very well be the same birds!
highly likely. There is a colony of ringnecked parakeets living in London.
I have a male one who lives loose inthe aviary block and occasionally comes out to fly around on my property for a day or two before coming back in to the aviary block to eat and drink.
Could be green winged parrakeets. Lots of em about.
sound like parakeets. ring the rspca
It is possible, there are a few colonies of parakeets that have succeeded in the wild - mainly in Bushey Park, I believe.
