3 weeks ago in London, we enjoyed a walk in Kensington Gardens and I saw some blossoms I wanted to take pictures of. Only when I was closer did I see there was some wildlife too!

I always thought of Parakeets as tropical birds. Imagine my surprise to see them (many of them) in the middle of London!

Lovely catch Chris! You could almost overlook him in the first picture.

Cheers Tim. It was a nice day in Kensington gardens, I'll post up some more photos shortly.
 
Nice. They are a bloody nuisance though.
 
They are now up here in the North East of England.
