- Most widespread of all the parrots . • Roosts and feeds in hundreds-strong flocks, which can devastate fruit and cereal crops
• Thrives in cities and in countries far from its normal tropical range, including Britain • Pairs mate for life and make their nest in a snug hole in a tree or wall.Found in southern Asia, from eastern Pakistan and India east to Burma (Myanmar), and in a band across Africa, from Senegal to Somalia; introduced to parts of Europe, Middle East, ‘ China and the U.S.The rose-ringed parakeet prefers lightly wooded country in the lowland plains of tropical Asia and Africa, but it occurs up to 6,600′ in the Himalayas and the Ethiopian highlands. In rural India, the parakeet lives in areas of lush vegetation, breeding in deciduous forests. In much of its African range, however, the species is found in savannah woodland and arid, thorny scrub. The rose-ringed parakeet lives near human habitation, since farmland, parks and gardens provide it with easy pickings. A huge parakeet population lives in the cities of northern India and Pakistan.It’s unusual to see the rose-ringed parakeet alone or in a pair, except in the breeding season. For most of the year, the bird lives in flocks, which may be thousands-strong in parts of India. The parakeet squabbles frequently with its companions, but fights are rare, as they reserve their aggression for driving away predators, such as hawks. The parakeets all join in to mob their enemy, flapping their wings, pecking and screaming until it retreats.
The agile parakeet uses its bill like a third foot when climbing. It stretches its neck out and takes a hold on a suitable branch with its bill, before following with its feet. The parakeet uses a similar method when walking on a narrow perch.The rose-ringed parakeet lives in places where there’s an abundance of nuts, seeds and fruity supplemented by other crops, such as wheat, maize, coffee, dates, figs and guavas. These foods ripen at different times, sustaining the parakeet throughout the year If food is scarce due to a failed crop, for example, the parakeet leaves its home range to eat whatever plant matter it finds.
Large flocks of the rose-ringed parakeet gather to feast on heavily laden fruit trees or spilled grain. The birds themselves have learned how to tear open sacks of grain or rice in farmyards and railway depots.Pairs of rose-ringed parakeets stay together for life, but the male and female renew their pair bond every year During the courtship display, the male approaches his mate while fanning his tail and repeatedly dilating, then contracting the pupils of his eyes. The male feeds the female beak to beak; she rolls her eyes and rubs bills with her partner:
The rose-ringed parakeet usually nests in an unlined tree hole about 10-33′ above the ground. It often makes use of an old woodpecker hole, which the parakeet may first enlarge with its bill. In urban areas, breeding pairs sometimes nest in holes in walls and buildings, even in noisy areas, such as near a busy street market.
The female incubates the eggs for more than three weeks, while she is fed and guarded by her mate. The naked chicks hatch and their eyes open ten days later: Both parents feed the young for 7-8 weeks, regurgitating partly digested food into their bills.With Thanks from what-when-how.com/birds/rose-r...
