If you allow me: Parakeets Alessandrini.
The Parakeet largest in the world.
I knew that Rome had long existed a colony of parakeets from the collar but now with these bigger a lot '!!!
Beautiful documentation, then congratulations for the shot.
Greetings Robertino

Hello Robertino, thanks. The name ... for sure there is only Alexandrine parakeet (scientific name), on the Italian translation there are different opinions (Alexandrine Parakeet, Great Alexandrian, etc.), But the scientific community of the area (ornithologists) prefers Parakeet Alexander (official name used on the portal ornitho.it).
In Rome, the collared parakeets and parrots monaco are now ubiquitous, with populations of several hundreds (probably thousands) of specimens in the whole city. The Parakeet Alexander is the latest in chronological order, his first observation was reported in 2010, and these are the same two examples that I captured in the photo above (and I follow a long time). We currently do not know if other specimens, except for a report a few months ago on the portal ornitho.it that indicin the presence of 3 specimens in the same area. I personally have always seen only these two examples. From 2010 to date apparently did not generate progeny, we see what happens this year (more than a month mate, even frequently).
However, in addition to the 3 species of parakeet above, in Rome are also reported several other aufughi, including corrugated parakeets, Cockatiels and Ringers.
Greetings, Alessandro;-)
