There is something distinctly 'other country' about them ... the shape of the beak and head are quite unlike Australian parrots. I really like the little snippets of life in Germany I get through this blog.Joan Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16358008925558240778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139161043677921966.post-20807779877345821892009-08-16T06:47:25.807+10:002009-08-16T06:47:25.807+10:00That's a strange thing with the German parakee...That's a strange thing with the German parakeets - they only have two habitats and seem not to move (so AB won't see them in Saarbrücken). Around where I live we have a population of around 1300 "Rose-Ringed Parakeets" and several hundreds "Alexandrine Parakeets".Martinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04771625000856319335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139161043677921966.post-90830644169603620932009-08-15T19:49:39.929+10:002009-08-15T19:49:39.929+10:00I reckon they might be red-rumped parrots.I reckon they might be red-rumped parrots.freefallinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08863000229609701796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139161043677921966.post-79216940227255578612009-08-15T13:23:40.603+10:002009-08-15T13:23:40.603+10:00AB, even though I see parrots often they still see...AB, even though I see parrots often they still seem exotic to me too.<br /><br />Martina, yes these are the size of a parakeet or rosella (which are types of parrots) and are probably one of those. Interesting that you have them too.<br /><br />PJ, welcome back!!! <br /><br />I'm off wayfaring this weekend but will be visiting everyone's blogs on my return.Joan Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16358008925558240778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139161043677921966.post-86627965046670103952009-08-15T08:10:03.141+10:002009-08-15T08:10:03.141+10:00They must be quite a sight, they're certainly ...They must be quite a sight, they're certainly exotic to my eye.
