Hi Sue

The osteo was for my dear wife. While she is being done over I take a long walk in Cassiobury Park, Watford. It is about 200 acres of parkland, woods and a nature reserve next to the Grand Union Canal. There are a couple of Parakeets. One landed on my shoulder and it was determined to stay - even when the dog barked at it.

How fascinating Besoeker. I love parakeets, they are getting more common in the wild now. Think they attack our smaller birds though, which is a shame.

Hi Besoeker & Moyra

As far as I'm aware, there are only two so probably don't pose a huge threat. As it happens, there was a film crew there that day and one of them kindly agreed to take this:



My dog was not best pleased......
