    How often do you get jays in the garden - I saw one recently in ours but they sitck to woods mainly I think.
  • suzisausagesuzisausage
    my back garden is quite large and lots of big trees. all sorts of wildlife out there. its a shared garden for lots of flats, so large and unused mainly, so making it popular for wildlife

    i'd say most weekends when i have more time to look out the back window i spot one.

    always have 3 or 4 parakeets in the big tree in our garden every saturday morning singing to each other.
  • SaladSalad
    Parakeets don't sing - they bloody screech at the top of their 'orrible little voices! Are they the green ring-necked ones like in Greenwich Park?

    You serious? And they're seriously in Greenwich Park?

    Global warming.....
  • suzisausagesuzisausage
    they're all completely green with bright orange beaks and a bit of orange on their necks

    and i like their noise. mine are obviously more tuneful!

    Medders, it has got nothing to do with global warming. Some escaped from captivity a few years ago and they have spread throughout the south ever since. There is a flock of about 2,500 of them that flocks to Esher rugby club every night. It is an amazing site. Almost as spectacular as those flocks of Starlings in that TV advert; taken from a Bill Oddie show a few years ago.

    Parakeets have successfully lived in the wild in this country for nearly 40 years to my knowledge and possibly longer than that.

    There is a big colony of them in Thanet that I know of and also one in the St Pauls Cray area.

    It's no surprise that they are spreading.

    ive counted 11 in my garden, the most at any one time. that was a sunday afternoon as the sun was just going down. that was a bit noisy then.

    Where's the Thanet one Len? Sounds like a good reason to get out with the camera....

    They certainly used to roost in St George's Park Ramsgate. I would imagine they still do although I've not been there for a few years.

    When I said St George's I meant King George....
