Rose-ringed Parakeet

Psittacula krameri

Description:

they visit every year around the same time and stays for 7-10 days eating walnuts from the tree and then leave. I never saw them before 2006/2007 maybe, but from this time they visit every year. I have also seen them around Cairo University and the Giza zoo due to the green area around the area.

Notes:

this spotting dates back to 2009 and shot with point and shoot camera.

That red patch on the shoulders makes me think these are Alexandrine Parakeets.Psittacula eupatria
