Thoes are not parakeets they are Quaker Parrots

Really weird seeing them walk on the ground, & so many of them. They're around here too, but not so many of them, & I haven't ever managed to get close enough to the nest to really learn much about them. Neat birds, though. When they fly they always seem like a paper airplane someone put too big a coin in the nose of, but they manage to get where they're going, & come back, so good for them. Neat birds.

@loverofmythology Quakers are illegal to keep as pets in New Jersey where I live because they adapt very well to the outside and can become invasive to native species. They are so cute!

Quaker parrots, eh? They were the wrong markings for budgies, anyway.

They're normal sized quaker parakeets. Look puffed up due to cold. Parakeets have long tails. Parrots have short ones. Nice video.
they're Quaker parrots. we have them around where i live in chicago! they r a bit bigger than parakeets, and make giant nests that all fit together into one colony. you can actually buy them at some pet stores.

They are also called "Monk Parakeets". Several colonies live in some of the larger cities like New York City, Chicago, and Cincinnati!! They can withstand the cold very well.
