Parakeet & Brent Goose

On Sunday 11th November, the Ring- necked Parakeet was initially not at Nicholas Everett Park seeing Neville L & Tony B apparently it flew over towards the Wherry but it flew back calling s it came. It kept mostly in the shade, mainly in the evergreen tree feeding on berries. Later, I drove to Links road car park, with an immature Brent Goose feeding by the eastern edge. It flew up briefly when an uncontrolled dog went for it and it ran towards the car where I could see it just 20 feet away whilst I stayed within the car using it as a mobile hide. Later on back at Nicholas Everett Park, the bird was seen in the Oak tree and joined by Rene we obtained some shots albeit in bad light.
