Diego Hernandez first off this bird is a boy! It’s a ringneck and only boys develop the black ring and they get that ring at 2 years old they live for 30+ years so what makes you say that bird isnt Gonna live long.. you can’t tell age on a bird unless it shows some sort of signs like sleeping a lot… lol tell me you know nothing about birds!

A lot of people on this post are saying this is a wild Quaker (monk parrot). But it’s definitely not. It’s an Alexandrine & they’re not a common parrot & I’m sure someone is missing him.

Austin Texas Wild green parakeets—specifically monk parakeets (or Quaker parrots)—live in Austin because they are descendants of pet birds that escaped or were intentionally released starting in the 1970s and 1980s. How They Got Here • The Pet Trade: Importers brought thousands of monk parakeets from subtropical South America into the United States during the 1960s and 1970s. • Escapes and Releases: Owners grew tired of the birds' loud, incessant squawking and their long lifespans, leading many people to set them free, while others accidentally escaped. • Local Colonization: A small founding group (local lore often cites around 19 birds released near Zilker Park or near downtown) adapted to the Central Texas environment and began breeding.

Khushbu Patel they are quakers. But the bird in The post is not, it’s an alexandrine parrot.

Cathy Walker-Glover not this breed. Those are quakers. They colonize pretty easy. This is an alexandrine.
