"They eat all the berries. They ate all the food from my feeder in one day; it was ludicrous. I had to stop putting it out because it got too expensive."
Parakeets are ruining London!

- I'm a hardcore, old-style blogger — writing daily for 17 years straight about the way things look from Madison, Wisconsin. I was a law professor for 33 years, but those days are over.

I won't believe I'm in Wisconsin until I see some evidence of the flora or fauna.
At least they're pretty.
Budgies are better looking and less destructive than the muzzies that are actually overrunning the place.
Turnabout is fair play. Serves those Brits right, for bringing starlings to the U.S.A. Wait till they see giant flocks of Australian budgies that blot out the sun.
We have a similar issue with wild parrots. They love ripe figs; so when the figs on our tree are ripe, we'll get 30-40 parrots in the yard eating the figs. Pretty cool the first day, but 40 parrots in your yard at 5 AM gets old very quickly.
You know, I can't find a single damn recipe for parakeets!
And the Moslems think dogs are unclean.
Yeah. Blame it on the parakeets. As if the general trajectory of London hasn't been a downward spiral for thirty years.
Even the punkers are like, "Oy, this shite is too trashy even for me."
Oh, and parakeets are mean and they shriek and I don't like them at all. Why couldn't the place get infested with caiques? Those are the friendlies birds I've ever come into contact with! AND THEY LOOK LIKE THEY'RE WEARING COLORED TROUSERS!!!
The parakeets in Den Haag in Holland roost in the warm air of the outlets of air conditioning systems. I wonder if the same effect is seen in London. They certainly haven't come out as far as here (some 20 miles from London).
