Psittacula krameri
Rose-Ringed Parakeet ,the most abundant and well-known of its family, this parakeet is to be found throughout the area in light woodland, parks, gardens and cultivated areas. Although beautifully adapted for climbing about in trees, with two toes pointing forwards and two behind, they sometimes visit the ground, sidling about with a rolling gait on their short legs. The nest is placed in a hole in a tree, those with small entrances being suitably enlarged, or sometimes in cracks or holes in masonry. Green body color ,red bill and long tail feathers is the identity for these birds.These and other parakeets are favorite cage birds,
Found near Tajmahal, in group on Neem tree having many holes for their nests.
