Parakeet quest

 

About 4:30 in the afternoon, a few Green Parakeets start gathering on wires in McAllen.

 

Then, they pop over to the fountain for a drink.

 

 

The flock continues to grow.  They relocate to another section of the street in a great chattering swirl.

 

 

…and line up on wires again.

 

Then, just as it was getting dark, out of 400 Green Parakeets, I pick out the lone Mitred Parakeet.

Second from the left.  A little larger than the Green Parakeets.  Red forehead.

 

 

Life is good.
