Ring-necked parakeet, Pennington Flash


A ring-necked parakeet at the Slag lane end at lunchtime was only the second that I have ever seen at the flash, with the first 39 years ago in November 1983. I'm not sure what local populations were like in 1983, but with the species currently going from strength to strength and now present in large numbers in most parks in both Manchester and Liverpool, this feels like a much more authentic record than the 1983 bird.
