Default Wild Ringnecks in London!

Looky what we get on the feeders in London. These guys were photographed in my mother-in-law's backyard. There are huge flocks of them. I often hear their eeee! eeee! noises.

Spot the Parakeets:

Oh, if you guys like those photos, you will love what I saw in the park the other day.
Two ringnecks snuggling and preening each other on a tree branch. My husband took a picture, but it's kind of hard to see unless you choose the biggest view of the pic and zoom in:
(click on 'all sizes' at the top of the pic, then choose 'large' for the best view)
