Still more feathered friends

A few days ago we heard a more raucous than usual squawking coming from some trees near our home. Upon investigation we caught a glimpse of a flock of some sort of bird just before they flew away. 
A couple of days later we heard it again and I got out the binoculars and camera to try to get a better look. 
Well, both the binoculars and the camera's zoom have their limitations and our vocal visitors were quite far away. But...I did manage a couple of shots. Bear in mind that these were taken with the zoom and even the digital zoom at their max. But the long and the short of it is that we're pretty sure they're parrots. Parrots in our backyard. Who'da thunk?



Which may explain another of Ellyn's recent finds.
