    I don't know if the Filipino cockatoos are a different type to those in Australia - I think they still have plenty

    And I share that very poor opinion . Too much of humanity is greedy and lacking empathy. In many cases, humans are as well quite sadistic... especially to those they hold some power over

    News from the Netherlands about feral parakeets. They have only just started appearing in gardens around us in south-east England.

    I am guessing that a lot of countries have similar issues with a species of parrot becoming invasive. It's odd that they adapt so well to different environments, but in some cases, can't adapt to their changing natural habitat.

    Happy news from Australia/New Zealand where a galah has stowed away on a cruise ship and has been given his own cabin till the ship returns to Australia. I wonder if the owners will get the bill.

    An item on birds crashing into windows, which is a problem we have with the reflection of our yew tree in our house front windows. It is usually the young birds that do it in the spring. Their parents are not giving them a proper education. We put coloured glass and strips of red tape to try and make them aware that it is just a reflection.

    We have the same problem. In one window we have made a cat seat and our one cat who eats and sleeps up there seems to be a bit of a deterrent.
