“Are the parakeets ‘bad’? It depends on whom you ask. To fruit farmers, they are an emergent pest. To nuthatches, they are a potential nest thief. But to many members of the public, they are a spirited reminder of our changing world.”

“For all their splendor, the parakeets are nevertheless a bit of a scandal. Politicians, conservation bodies, land management, and the public have all begun to ask: Do we want tens of thousands of Himalayan parrots squabbling all over our cities?”
