I can imagine that having 4,000-6,000 parakeets in close proximity
like Bob had is a bit overwhelming, but one or two parakeets liven up
a garden. On the plus side seagulls and jackdaws give parakeets a wide
berth, although other birds don't seem to be frightened by parakeets.
It's around ten years since we first saw parakeets in the area. The
most we have ever seen in our garden was four and that was only once,
normally we get one or two.


Luckily I don't live that near the Esher Rugby Ground, it's about 12 miles
away. Much too expensive an area for me.
