YEAH, I'M A SLEEPY MONK

Dallas, TX

Had to go out to Dallas for a bit this afternoon and went down by White Rock Lake. These guys have now migrated to the boat house area. They were down by the fish hatchery about a week ago. They come in from Mexico every summer and head back in the late Fall. About the same time the pelicans arrive, these guys will start to migrate south. Cool to see Green Monk Parakeets in North Central Texas!

Nice capture. We have them here year round, but I have yet to get one.
