3 green birds on the loose

[linzkg]

anyone lost 3 green parrot looking like birds?? they are flying around our back garden but are not wild looking birds they seem to be parrots / budgie looking like birds .. unless of coz we're heading for a tropical climate in the middle of London!!

Parakeets- lots of them in wild SE London now - not tropical birds either- they live in foothills of Himalayas IIRC, so cold isnt a problem

[linzkg]

you're quite right - just googled for more info - that's fab!

There is a pack of about 15 that visit my garden in Sydenham most days. So beautiful....enjoy!

There's a bunch of the noisy gits on Peckham Rye..

[minder]

If you go to Dulwich Park there are hundreds!

[PeckhamRose]

And my back yard! Noisy sods. They are fighting with starlings and squirrels for the holes in the trees.

At least half a dozen of them visit my back garden on a regular basis. We're living in exotic East Dulwich after all and I'm very fond of them.

There's hundreds of 'em. they seem to be increasing year on year.

[EvilLaugh]

The new pigeons. Or squirrels.

So if I wanted to find some of these birds (for instance, next time my Mum visits), where would you suggest would be a good place to look?

There are always loads of them in Peckham Rye Park - they tend to roost for the evening in the tree in the middle of the duck pond, quite an amazing (and noisy) sight!

If they are green Parakeets, they may belong to "Mister Magnolia" and should be returned....

At least half of them are registered Forumites too, they're so integrated in ED.

The Norwegian Blue species is quieter than the green ones.

Dulwich woods has quite a few.

Peckham Rye's good to see them - never noticed them when running, but few months back walked round there and saw loads of them.
