During the 1960s, thousands of these birds were shipped from Argentina as pets. Because of the huge influx of them, and their fad popularity, after a few years, people got bored with them, and let them go. Petstores couldn't sell them anymore because their popularity had worn out, and let them go. One thing led to another, and viola! You've got a collony of South American parrots living in the North East.

Monks or quakers thrive in large urban nests, not only in Brooklyn but in many US cities. The more the merrier, and messier. It is actually illegal to own these birds in several states because they alwayslive in large flocks and can cause damage to crops as well as utility substations.
