SooToday.com has received the following letter and accompanying photos from a loyal and observant reader in the north part of the city:
************************* Hello:
We seem to have a flock of six parakeets of some type in the neighbourhood today.
They are feeding at bird feeders and creating quite a stir!
They are in the vicinity of Wishart Park on Fourth Line East.
I have attached a picture for you to have a look at and will send another along in a minute.
These birds you will know are not "local" birds.
I have a feeling that they may be escaped birds from someone in the Sault.
I first heard and saw these birds last week but couldn't get an I.D. on them until this morning.
It's getting pretty darn chilly they need to find their home !!!
