I wasn’t expecting to get very good photos today as it was a very typically misty moisty November day, but when I took Wilson for his walk, I brought my camera just in case. I actually was able to capture a few lovely painting-like pictures of the autumnal colours bright against the grey sky and green grass.
We were just about to head home when Wilson disturbed a flock of Parakeets feeding on some bird feeders. I looked up and one lone parakeet remained looking at me as if to say…. ‘hurry up, get out your camera’ So I duly obliged, and I come home to find that this week’s Weekly Photo Challenge is Green!
That pesky parrot had insider knowledge I’m sure of it!
For other interpretations of this week’s theme have a look at:
Here’s my gallery of other ‘green’ photos from today

Are these parakeets living in the wild? Amazing! 😀

Yes, they live all around south west London and Surrey, there is lots of speculation of where they have come from, but there are at least 30,000 of them in the area now! They look very strange in the snow!

They’re not native! They escaped from a collection some time back, but there are about 30,000 of them now!
