A feature of the parks around here is the presence of feral Monk Parrots AKA, Quacker Parrakeets. They are interesting and noisy. They are native to South America but here in South Florida escaped birds have bred prolifically. Unusually they are the only parrot species that builds a nest rather than using a hole. I would guess that this breeding strategy has contributed to their success and enabled them to breed without being in conflict with hole nesting species. In my own experience, I have seen them feeding, as pictured above,  on small grasses and also on fruit. They are picturesque and pretty, but I repeat almost unbearably noisy.  I doubt if they have many enemies and consequently they breed unchecked and their numbers seem to be growing in my own personal experience. However, anecdotal evidence points to some kind of control here by (unknown) City or County departments.

Further to this post, this afternoon I took a few photos of a bird at it's nest, carrying and weaving sticks in to a nest at the top of a coconut palm.
