Green parrots in Gulhane Park, Istanbul. The Psittacula parakeets have been spotted in Istanbul trees for 3 decades, and by time increased numbers
The Psittacula parakeets have been spotted in Istanbul trees 30-40 years ago and their origin is unknown. They say they normally don't migrate so it means some group escaped from some pet shop or some other place. And by time their number increased to hundreds and even thousand. It is very easy to spot them because they shout all the time:)
