tulipa   10 #2 Posted August 10, 2009 They have been seen in Graves park too. I think they are regular visitors at certain times of the year. So i'm told anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

HeadingNorth   11 #4 Posted August 25, 2009 I know there's whole flocks of them in London. I have not heard of a sighting in Sheffield, but then, I haven't been listening very heard for news of one. It wouldn't surprise me in the least to find that there is a feral colony of them here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

RIZRAT Â Â 10 #7 Posted August 25, 2009 (edited) Worked in Reading a few years ago and there are thousands of the boogers that flock into the trees at night, its a sight to behold. I would imagine that they would colonise areas to a limit then spread out, so I would not suppose for one minute that they have not reached Sheffield what with the warmer winters.. Nice to see such colourful exotic birds in our neck of the woods if you are lucky enough but then again you are going to get those that quote rabbits in australia and grey squirrels etc.. live and let live I say..

Hogstar   10 #8 Posted September 1, 2009 Apparently some have been seen in the wild north of Worksop, Carlton in Lindrick area. So I guessing they are this far north Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
