Description: Pictures and general information about green monk parakeets at the University of Bridgeport.
An unexpected sight on the University of Bridgeport campus are the green monk parakeets. Natives of Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay, and central Bolivia, they have been imported into the United States as pets. It is often said that in the late 1960's, a container of parakeets was dropped and broke open at Kennedy Airport in New York. Several birds escaped and established wild populations in Long Island.
