Aw How nice to see them in the wild!! Are they native to your region?

 

[MaisyDawgThirteen]

How adorable! Are they native to Trinidad?

 

[bettaboyshiva]

yes they are..and if i get a single female from the petstore and put her in a trap cage outside that single male outside...will be mines lol..but i've done that before..and right now i dont have time for birds..although i have a few empty cages.

 

[Laki]

You wouldn't seriously consider taking one from the wild... would you?!?

 

[bettaboyshiva]

i've done it before ..and they got tame

 

[Olympia]

I don't see any reason to do that.. Fish I can understand.. But there are enough captive parakeets that we really shouldn't remove more from the wild..

 

[bettaboyshiva]

i agree with you thats why i dont keep them any longer in fact they made this hole in a palm tree close by and they made young...so here there are alot of parakeets..alot! lol

 

[Olympia]

Haha that's cute we always have robins that have babies in our yard and I watch them grow up.

In the city there's only pigeons and European Starlings!! Robins and Blue Jays are closer to the parameters of the forests. And we have A LOT of sea birds (like turns, gulls, puffins, etc) so they have nests out on cliffs and islands. There is a bald eagle family down on one of the lakes in town. And black ravens (or crows) keep them in town sometimes. You woldn't find "pet trade" birds around here!

Thats why I enjoy living in the suburbs by a forest
We get goldfinch, nut hatch, two types of woodpecker in our yard (another that only lives in the woods). Hawks too. Plus our creek has lots of different ducks, great blue heron and a ton of tiny water birds.

 

[Laki]

Oh I forgot the small birds!! lol And ducks and other migrating water fowl!

 

[MaisyDawgThirteen]

We get ducks in our pool. Not sure if the chlorine is good for them though . . . :/

 

[Mandy Pandy]

We have those outside... here however they are NOT native. Some pets got loose and now we have a ton of them every year. We have a large group of them that are often in a tree down the street. :3

 

[Olympia]

Oh are you in England? I heard they have a huge problem with them down there. I wouldn't mind those ones being taken and tamed and sold as pets.

Me? My location shall remain a mystery. xD

 

[Olympia]

Oh no MandyPandy. It says she's in new orleans anyways.
Your location says that you're behind me, so hah!
I know there's a huge problem with some sort of parakeet in England. It's too cold for anything tropical to survive here, most of our invasive species live in the lake

 

[MaisyDawgThirteen]

We have a bee and hornet problem where I live. -_- 2 Years ago there was a large wasp nest in our driveway, and every year we have at least 2 nests of black hornets.

 

[bettaboyshiva]

that sucks...we had some wasp nests here too on the wall outside...i toasted them with a torch one night lol! but had to repaint the wall the other day :/ lol

 

[Olympia]

We have tons of wasps too. Black ones and yellow ones.. We have a hummingbird feeder, filled with sugar water. Every few days I have to drain it of about 10 dead wasps :/ It's gross. We have no clue where the nest is.
