Rose-ringed Parakeet

Psittacula krameri

Description:

This non-migrating species is one of few parrot species that have successfully adapted to living in 'disturbed habitats', and in that way withstood the onslaught of urbanisation and deforestation. In the wild, this is a noisy species with an unmistakable squawking call.

Habitat:

The Amsterdam 'Vondelpark' houses a population of parakeets for years now. Normally they stay in the park, but today they decided to have their meeting our backyard :-)
