In Northern Europe parakeets cannot survive outside of urban environments. Parakeets are the third or fourth most numerous species on Hampstead Heath. Whilst, admittedly, the Heath is entirely enclosed within London, it is really quite a large non-urban environment, amounting to 790 acres of woods and grasslands. I believe they were first seen in the park at Hampton Court. Quite a novelty some 40 years ago. And spread outwards from there. I heard some ecsaped during the filming of the african queen. but. A persistent rumour regarding London's population of feral Ring Necked Parakeets is that they originated from birds escaped or released from the filming of this movie, however this claim is considered dubious.[22] my video of some Parakeets. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qh_X0n9vjp8 |
