Monk Parakeets

Day 93 / 365
” I will watch this side, you take the other side and no one will slip by us “.
Interesting Fact: Its large, communal nests of sticks are easily identifiable and are often built on support poles of electrical lines. ( http://identify.whatbird.com/obj/932/overview/Monk_Parakeet.aspx )
I was challenged by Cynthia at http://cynthiamvoss.wordpress.com/ to take up the Black and White 5-Day Challenge. Part of the fun is to nominate another blogger, one on each day.
Today, I nominate Susan of http://suejudd.com/ Susan, if you accept, the goal is to post one B&W photo each day for five days, and to nominate a fellow blogger each day to join in.
There is no pressure to accept this challenge. It’s just for fun! 🙂

I love this image: it speaks to me of how precarious life can be yet we need only meet life as it comes, one step at a time or, one flight at a time.
Thank you that is an amazing comment, I am really glad I can produce image that speaks to people. Thank you for stopping by and happy blogging. 🙂
super kool
Thank you very much. 🙂
No matter the species, we parents all have some things in common! Wonderful photo!
Thank you very much, I am very happy I can share this image with you and I very glad that you enjoyed it. 🙂
Great picture! I would love to see it in colour too. I used to have a pet quaker (monk parakeet) and he was full of personality although thankfully no nest building! 😃
Haha. They are amazing birds, next time when I will be in that area where they live I will post a color photo. Thank you for sharing your this with me. 🙂
Brilliant thanks! 😃 My pet was a blue variant but I gather the wild variety are green?
Yes they are. 🙂
I really like this image in black and white. It gives depth to the details. Thank you again for including me in your Black and White Photo challenge.
Thank you for inspiring me with your comments. 🙂
Lovely picture. Congratulations on completing the B&W challenge!
Thank you very much, super happy about that. 🙂
