San Francisco has a swarm of parrots which made me wonder where else in the US has parrots.
Parrots have been seen all over including in Anchorage Alaska. Some places on this map are misleading since 1 parrot was seen in a tiny county. For example Kenedy county TX has 3 parrot observations but only 330 people which puts it at 909 observations per 100k.
The highest rates that aren’t outliers are:
Kauai, HI – 457
Cameron, TX – 377
Hawaii, HI – 180
Jim Wells, TX – 139
Sarasota, FL – 118
Pinellas, FL – 116
Hidalgo, TX – 109
Notable parrot hotspots:
– Hawaii
– Southern California
– South Florida
– South Texas
– Texas Triangle
– NYC

I grew up around Greenwood Cemetery in Brooklyn where there’s a fair amount of Quaker parrots.

Lmao, never thought I’d see a day when bird talk blows up on reddit, but gotta say, this map’s hella cool.

I have lovebirds in my yard constantly. They’re very cute, but very loud.

I wonder who else zoomed in to make sure San Francisco was colored correctly.

When I lived in SF my front yard was a stopping point for the daily parrot route. They’re as noisy as they are cute, and they are very cute.

Long Beach, CA and Pasadena – the trees vibrate with parrots.

Knowing parrots, of all the counties, Miami-Dade probably has the most

I saw a parrot in Washtenaw County Mich in 2019 so go ahead and update the map

I see them driving down river rd in edgewater NJ, they have nests on the telephone poles. Thought they were fake the first time I saw them.
