Muggle Parakeets Have Edinburgh’s Owls on the Run

BBC NEWS | UK | Scotland | Flock of Houdini birds hits city
An aggressive parrot, known as the Houdini of the captive bird world, has caused concern after a flock was reported flying over Edinburgh.

Several sightings of a group, as well as individual ring-necked parakeets, are worrying experts who fear they will push out the city’s native birds.

The Indian Himalayan species, which has been escaping from city aviaries, can easily survive freezing temperatures.

The foot-long bird, which lives in tree holes, could displace a native owl.

This seems like it may be a lead-in to the events of Harry Potter Book Seven.
