	The Mission flock consists of around 20 Canary-winged Parakeets. I have had one reliable report that there were once as many as 40 of them. They are small parrots, averaging nine inches in length. This flock began as early as 1972. By 1976 their territory extended from Telegraph Hill to Dolores Park. The canary wings are the "wild parrots of Telegraph Hill" that appear in Armistead Maupin's book "Tales of the City". In the early 90s they were booted out of the northern end of the city by a new flock made up of a larger species of parrot.		The Mission flock consists of around 20 Canary-winged Parakeets.

	Most people are understandably surprised when they encounter wild parrots in North America.

They are intelligent adaptable birds, and quite a few of them can tolerate non-tropical environments. A flock of 150 feral monk parakeets lives year-round in Chicago's Hyde Park. There are at least nine parrot species currently breeding in California. It has been estimated that there are more than 2,000 free-flying parrots in southern California alone. The real survival issue for these birds is not the cold, but whether they can find enough to eat. There are or have been in the recent past feral parrot flocks living in Berkeley-Albany, Burlingame, and Sunnyvale-Palo Alto.
