We saw this beautiful Parakeet flying around DeKorte Park near the Lyndhurst Nature Reserve. It is still hanging around, as far as we know.

   If you've lost a Parakeet, e-mail jim.wright@njmeadowlands.gov.

   DeKorte Park seems to be a popular place for escapees and, heaven forbid, released birds. 

   We have had other releasees and escapees in the past including Chukars and Parakeets.
