I wasn’t sure if it was true but its, Edgewater, NJ is the home of a free-flying colony of Monk Parakeets.
Interesting Fact: These small, green parrots have lived in Edgewater since at least 1980. How the birds came to Edgewater is unknown, though a widely accepted story traces their origin to an escape from a damaged crate at John F. Kennedy Airport in the 1960s.

I love the look of your page, Lukasz 🙂
Thank you very much
I always worry when tropical birds get loose. I figure they’re not cut out for the “wild life.” Glad to see your lovely photos show some of them thriving!
Thank You I am glad to help
Very cool, and so unusual, Lukas. This is my first visit to your site and as I’ve looked at your photos, it won’t be the last!! Great images. Edgewater, eh? I was raised in Ho-Ho-Kus! All the best!
Thank You I am glad you enjoyed it
