I've seen IRNs in the mountains in Pakistan. It gets pretty cold even in the non-mountainous areas at night and especially during the winter. I'm not surprised they adapted.

They are cheeky characters who cannot be tamed.They do talk to people.

Great video, its amazing how clever and adaptable parrots are! One of my favorite birds!

I walked into my conservatory many years ago to be greeted with a flock of them sitting in a cherry tree heavy with pink blosssom. It was an amazing sight, i had no idea thet had spread to Lincolnshire. Sadly it was in the days before phones on cameras so i couldn't get a photograph. I have never seen them since that day. Thank you for the wonderful videos.

I own 2 IRNs and they are such a joy to have. Def a big responsibility but I love them so much and their sassy, intelligent personalities! And they can talk really well and are so intelligent it. Love them (and all birds) so much!

Im in essex and own one of these indian ringnecks , they can be loud but so cute when they talk and mine always want to chill with me and sit on my shoulder and go around the house with me haha.

In the Netherlands: After the first ring-necked parakeets were released by humans or escaped from cages in the 1960s, the species appeared to be able to survive quite well in the Netherlands. There are now real strongholds in Amsterdam and The Hague and the species is still expanding. There are between 2500-3000 breedingpairs counted (2018-2020)

Dear Terra Mater, please use the vertical bar | instead of a capital I for your titles. I know they look similar but have different meanings. Every time I get confused because I misinterpret your separator as the English word I (me). Thx :)

Some years ago a parakeet was sitting on one of my garden fences, next to a wood pigeon, who moved nervously away from the parakeet, even though it was twice the size of the other bird. 😁

That one male IRN said " Mithu" hahah. I can confirm he lived in captivity first.

Awesome g r e e n p a r r o t .. really like it ..i speakless how wonderful parrot at uk . Big thanks friend

Had so many pet parakeets throughout my childhood. They are so much fun and talkative as well!

Terrapins are another introduced species, but apparently the climate in the UK is too cold for them to breed.

In my region, where these birds are native, or year-round residents, have been observed breeding mostly in the hot months of June & July; it’s amazing to find them thriving in a region that is cold almost year-round.

Beautiful birds

These are all over Europe, we have them in Barcelona but also all over the Netherlands

Same in Paris, France. Bright blue ones!

sadly since the Green parakeets arrived in South-East London, I rarely if ever hear the Blackbird, Wren or Robin singing 💔

Seen them in little flocks in Windsor Great Park and in our garden in Hampshire! :)

Got a flock that fly round my house and chill in the trees at the end of the garden in essex their a nice colourful addition a little noisy but not as annoying as the magpies 😅

We have them in Belgium as well! I wonder if they were released here for the same reason or if they flew over from London 😊

The first breeding colony was recorded in Thetford Norfolk in the 1850's.

I only ever saw them in West London in the 80's around the parks of Hounslow by the 2000's I'd see big flocks in Ham and Richmond. I've since moved to Durham and on the odd occasion seen them here too. I really like them I used to keep budgies and used to love sanding on the parallel bars in our playground at school to watch the budgies in the neighbours aviary. I'd have one now but for the constant toxic smoke from neighbours' fires.

We have a small flock in Glasgow, Scotland. They fly very fast .

Awesome narration.

I wonder about their effects, positive or negative, on the ecology of the Isles and if there is any concern they may be able to spread beyond (to the European mainland). What niche do they fill and does that compete with indigenous animals? Is it one that may compete with other species in France and beyond?

I'm sitting here watching this a flock of these parakeets settle in a huge oak tree down the bottom of my garden

I have the same thing going on over in Long Beach California cuz I was sitting out there one day and I saw a couple of them like that

It's in our Nort East India 🇮🇳 too both Rose ringneck and Alexdrine 🦜 in our place mostly in Summer June July becoz of kwdwm bimfaang fruit kwdwm tree 🌳 in our language

I USE TO LOVE SEEING THEM THEY ARE ADORABLE.. BROMLEY TO ERITH SIDE IN LONDON, IM IN ESSEX NOW NEVER SEE THEM AGAIN , ❤❤❤LOVE THE VIDEO

Have they been sighted in mainland Europe yet?

They are not just in London but all over the south east, and furthemr nnorth too. I live ovef 60 miles away and loads are in my town alone.

The fact that parrots live every where now

I remember seeing some large blue parrots outside my South London flat in the mid-1980’s one Winter’s Sunday morning. I called the police as I assumed that they had escaped recently from somewhere - what a mistake. The person at the other end of the line said “hold the line a moment while I check” and after several minutes of roaring laughter in the background, the person picked the phone back up and struggled to put a sentence together. Being super-stupid, I told my workmates about the whole story in the office the next day. By the end of the day I had lost count of the number of times people burst into laughter as we passed in corridors, etc. Well, a few days later the evening TV news ran a story about blue parrots being spotted all over the area I lived in and had interviews with several people who said they’d been around for quite a few years. Redemption!

We have them in Duesseldorf Germany too. I think cologne and Duisburg too.

Thank the tories as always

Uk had colonized South Asia and now the tables have turned with these birds

I know right? I first saw these birds for the first time near my Uncle and aunt's house in Hounslow. And I remember thinking what on Earth are a bunch of parrots doing flying freely in the UK?

You should make a video about the wild parrots of the uae please

Ive worked in the uk film industry. And its common knowledge that the parrots had been released by a film production.

I wish my city had a cool bird non native bird like these guys, instead we get starlings and European cow birds.

saw a few flying around in regents park not too long ago

It's no different than peach-faced lovebirds are in Arizona. Nesting in cacti. We the human race brought them there. My own ancestors used to bring these wonderful exotic birds from South America up north. And these creatures are native to Africa. Ships would carry them to other continents. For trade. Mostly. Of course some would escape or be released. They are small smart quick little suckers.❤

I enjoyed the commentary. Are you an A.I. voice? One of the more understandable, domestic pet release reason I've heard. People would have been dealing with other serious issues at that time as well. 1920-30s, possibly the Depression, poverty and more!

I can tell you Fact if you went to Windsor and wrote to Affinity Water they have a treatment plant on the River Thames this is where the film was recorded there are pictures in the tea room showing the actors and there is photos of the birds being set loose !! FACT

They’re very sweet birds that make cute noises

Nice.

You can see them in Hyde Park, London.

Parrots!🎉

They are invasive in Belgium too

I have seen yellow ones mixed with green in north west londo

It's not only London or the UK. Lots of them in Amsterdam, Brussels, Paris, Lille, and around.

Mithhu is a hindi word which means parrot and here in india first word they learn easily is mitthu

Ringnecks cannot be kept as pets in India as per law. They are a protected species here.

Why only one type of parrot when so many different types released

The sounds in the background sound like Rainbow Lorikeets not Ringed Neck Parrots.

Like with Germany

they, and a lot of other parrots and alike are also in Germany (and many other parts of Europe)

Why only the green and not the yellow or blue ones or red ones?

In Belgium also .. There a real pest ..

It’s interesting that it’s Indian Ringnecks that are invasive across the world. They are invasive in South Africa too and you are required to have a permit to own one.

The wild effects and chaotic mixture of music, background sounds of the footage and narrator lines in this particular video make it really hard to focus or keep calm to be honest. This is intended to be helpful-spirited criticism, as I really do like ypur content and appreciate the effort you put into. I just think its a little too much and I sadly cannot bear to watch it because it stresses me out. :(

These green birds are also been seen in the Netherlands.

Kwiaty jednoroczne sądzą zamiast bylin i zmieniać miejscówki donic co roku .. I już... to na papugi się zgodzą ale antydepresanty zimowe tak..

mithu is indian pet name fr parrot!! They are endangered species in India and protected species!! They are not allowed to keep as pets

Why are they all green ? I haven't seen any other colour in the park

Well just goes to show invasive animals and plants always have human help. Some are liked more than others

That is not entirely true, they progress over Europe as well and you can see them in almost every city in Europe. They simply migrate from Afrika and are able to live here due to their adaptability to the European climate which,by the way, is getting warmer in the last decades.

1:34 For two parakeets to establish a population of 50.000, especially in a new environment is probably not possible There just isn't enough genetic diversity

These birds are not indigenous to Africa, they originate from the north of India where the climate is quite similar to Europe. This species has simply migrated and has found most European cities offer favorable conditions for them, you will see them thriving in most European cities.

But of course they were from the exotic pet trade or exhibit bird escapees and the like! There can be no other avenue since these parrots are non-migratory. Odd conspiracy theories as to their arrival in the UK. 🦜 😉 Indian Ringneck parrots, or Alexandrine parrot, is native to Asia, and was first brought to southeastern Europe by way of Greek military leader Alexander the Great. The birds were given by Indian nobles and royals who kept them as status symbols in areas of ancient India. These birds quickly became beloved by ancient Greeks, as well. It's becoming clear that the descendents of species native to warm climes are over time, adapting to live in cooler ones. Evolution in progress?

The British pretty much took the parakeets from the colonised parts of Africa and South Asia.

This was very cool to see. Next part has nothing negative to do with this video - 99.9998% of the time it goes like this; Q: Why is this species where it shouldn't be able to be? A: irresponsible humans Same reason pigeons are eeeevverryywherre

Can wild parrots mimic human lanuague

Dry friend 10

Brave snake 03

i think britishers bring this parrots from india to uk when he was ruling india , beacause india have lots of rose ring ringed parakeets & they speak ( mitthu ) world which means parrot

YAY

they are not exotic theyre just colorful

Posh Pigeons?

I need a pixar movie of this, an allegory of South Asians and Africans migrating to Europes.

European New Wild

✌️

It doesn't seem like they're causing too much trouble. I'd take parrots over the starlings and house sparrows we here in the US got from the Brits. I hear the starling population isn't doing so hot over there too so if you guys ever want to trade we have hundreds of millions to spare..

What are non-exotic parrots? From an English perspective that is?

"Climate change"🤣

the birds got there cause they also followed their colonizers

either way they are a invasive and a pest. They will harm local animal life and create bigger problem ahead. Messing with the ecosystem can have a massive butterfly effect. Just ask the australians about rabbits.

parrot are talkative chicken

Do not feed wild birds. Doing so increases their populations to pest proportion.

Why use these fake computer-generated pictures of parakeets?

Bleedin' american voice overs for stories about London. Do they not know that we cringe at hearing that accent?

We all so have them up in the north east of England 🇬🇧
