About
A medium-sized, green parakeet, the ring-necked parakeet is the UK's only naturalised parrot and the most northerly breeding parrot in the world. ring-necked parakeets are originally from Africa and southern Asia and were kept as pets in the UK. They escaped into the wild, however, and have become naturalised, aided by warmer winters. They nest in holes in trees in gardens and parkland, and are often found in noisy, roosting flocks of hundreds of birds. They eat nuts, seeds, berries and fruits.
How to identify
The ring-necked parakeet is an unmistakable green parrot, although other species of parrot do escape and even nest sometimes. It has a very long, narrow tail and a bright red bill. Males have a black throat and a thin black and pink collar.
Distribution
Previously largely restricted to southeast England, particularly around south and west London where they are still very common. Parakeets are now found in distinct breeding colonies across Britain, as far north as Scotland. They are often found in urban parks.
"I don't have Instagram, but my sister does. I'll ask her to look," said Abdul. He was relaxing in the park on a cloudy summer day.
Many people I have met while photographing have connected with me and become friends. Everyone has a story, and I've encountered numerous extraordinarily talented individuals.
I'm humbled by the generosity of individuals willing to spend some time with a curious street photographer.
A local business has renovated and there is a waiting area with this.glass on three walls of the cubicle at eye level. Ha I forgot I was waiting for something. The next day I went back with my camera and asked if I could get some pics. There is light coming up from the supporting wall into the sheets of glass giving the grasses some super lighting. Just awesome !

Hallo,
ich musste heute Morgen einfach mal raus – ein wenig die Beine vertreten und mich entspannen. Meine Nase ist rot, die Taschentücher meine ständigen Begleiter und heute Abend noch eine Hochzeitsfeier. Sei’s drum es macht ja Spaß und Spaß soll ja bekanntlich helfen. Genug gemeckert.
Der Hamburger Hafen war heute Morgen mein Ziel, dort kann ich wunderbar entspannen. Natürlich war die Kamera dabei, jedoch hatte ich mir nicht allzu viele Hoffnung gemacht, da es ja doch recht früh war. Denkste! Der Hafen bzw. die Landungsbrücken waren mit den unterschiedlichsten Leuten gut besucht. So war es für mich dann auch kein Problem die Leute anzusprechen, die meiner Stimmung , oder besser gesagt meinem Vorhaben sich zu entspannen, am nähsten kamen.
Ich wünsche euch ein Schnupfen-freies Wochenende
Markus
