RING-NECKED PARAKEET // PSITTACULA KRAMERI
PARAKEETS have been popular pets since Victoria times and inevitably many have escaped or been deliberatively released over the years. Despite their tropical origin, they are fully able to cope with the cold British winters. They only started to breed in 1969 in Thanet Kent, and South East London, since then the population has steadily increased, currently numbers are over 50,000 individuals and is still growing, the species has been recorded in almost every county in England, and Wales, and the Scottish boarders. Have had up to 17 in my garden, I like this image because it does show the red ringed neck, more often it does not show. All British bird books now include this species, love them or hate them they are hear to stay..
