If my next vacation isn't to Australia, it's going to have to be to Telegraph Hill, San Francisco, to visit with the "Wild Parrots" - a flock of feral red-masked parakeets aka cherry-headed conures mostly descended from escaped/released pets.

i think i heard about something like that in Florida too. exotic pet-type birds that flock on the telephone wires and such.

Yeap, both Quaker Parrots (aka Monk Parakeets) and red-masked parakeets (aka cherry-headed conures) have flocks there. Some states power companies exterminate them at first opportunity. :(
