Lynda emails that Maple Leaf’s resident Scarlet-fronted parakeets returned on Monday.
“I heard and then saw three of our Scarlet-fronted parakeets flying over my yard at 12th Avenue Northeast and Northeast 90th Street about 9:30 this morning.
“Why any bird would want to migrate for the winter to the north and higher elevation (from Seward Park) I don’t know, but I’m glad they still are around to do it.”
I didn’t know they came up from Seward, I’ve seen/heard them there. I thought they were a different flock.
I’ve seen them before and I love them. It so unique to have them come here. Maple Leaf is special!
