There are lots of wild things in Brooklyn, NY, but did you know about the wild parrots? Several communities of Quaker Parrots (Myiopsitta monachus), believed to hail from the mountains of South America, are nesting in the New York area. So we asked Steve Baldwin, the creator of http://BrooklynParrots.com, to point out the parrots. He gives free group tours about once a month, if you're in the area....
