| 説明 | While Londoners mourn the decline of one of their most famous inhabitants, the cockney sparrow, the capital's resident wild parakeet population is enjoying rude health.There are up to 3,000 Rose-Ringed or Ring-Necked Parakeets (Psittacula krameri) in London, probably descendants of birds released or escaped into the wild in the 1950s and 1960s.There are a number of sometimes fanciful theories as to how parakeets, (indiginous to Asia), came to make their home here, such as the urban legend that the birds escaped from a container at Heathrow airport, or from Shepperton Studios in west London during filming of The African Queen in 1951. |
