Caught in the background

[Tringa]

A pair of crows have nested in a conifer a few gardens away and we've been watching the three youngsters develop. Yesterday evening one of the parents sat on the top of the tree and I thought I'd try to get a photo of it.

It was more a test of how well or badly I could handhold the camera on full zoom than anything else.

I took a few, none were great or even good photos but accidentally this one has some interesting birds flying in the background.

I think I know what they are but I'd be interested in other views.

Parakeets as well for me.

Parakeets were my choice too and yes, this was east London, not Scotland.

They seem to be spreading well. Only seen them about 5 times in the last 30 years here, but 3 of those sightings were in the last year.
