The Invasion Of Green Parrots

The Invasion Of Green Parrots

Parrots of the monk parakeet species in the Molfettese countryside near the sea on September 16, 2023 in Molfetta. With the tropicalization of the climate, an invasion of parrots is occurring in the countryside, which, from their first settlement in Molfetta, have taken over towns and countryside in Bari, Bisceglie, Giovinazzo, Palese, Santo Spirito, Bitonto, Bitetto, Palo del Colle, Binetto, Grumo Appula, and even pushed into the Alta Murgia, Coldiretti Puglia warns. These are monk parakeets of the species Myiopsitta monachus Boddaert, which appeared with an initial ''settlement'' on a eucalyptus tree in the Molfettese contrada ''Madonna delle Rose,'' then moved on to settle, building 'multifamily' nests and reproducing with great speed. This species of green parrots, feeds on fruit and especially almonds, with serious damage on production already at an all-time low due to the crazy weather. (Photo by Davide Pischettola/NurPhoto)
