  • Exotic wildlife

    These last few years I've had green, ringneck parakeets paying me a visit. Usually a pair; one will sit in a tree while the other flies down and attempts to feed from the peanut feeder, although I doubt it has much success considering its beak shape. They were very fleeting in their visits, but now I see the birds most weeks, and certainly there is a gradually establishing population of them in the southeast.

    What other formally exotic species are we regularly seeing in our gardens / allotments I wonder?

    My daughters live in Lewisham and there are parakeets in their gardens.
    Nothing exotic here . We have almost black red squirrels but they are not exotic.....we saw something we thought was a pine marten a few years back but nothing since. Wild boar ....thats about it.

      The most exotic thing we have are those horrible awful New Zealand worms, although I haven't seen one for a while I'm sure they're still around.

        I don't know wheter this counts as 'exotic' but we do get quite a few hummingbird moths here. Extraordinary things and they seem totally out of place in an English garden ...
