Parrot nest

March 2nd, 2012



Yes, there are wild parrots in Brooklyn! They're monk parakeets, a.k.a. Quaker parrots, and they've established several strongholds throughout the region, one of which is here at the park known, for reasons of political expediency, as Quaker Parrot Park at the Dust Bowl, which sounds an awful lot like Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.

    Oh yes – the famous city parrot. We have several flocks here near Pasadena, CA. Noisy and irritating and probably here forever, just like the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.
