Apologies to Emily Dickenson for the title. Of course, the thing with feathers is hope, not a roof.

The roof of the Staatstheater in Wiesbaden.








Link to Brian Bushboy’s site whose idea it was to go up on roofs or the Leanne’s Monochrome Madness site:
Monochrome Madness: On the roof

How funny! I have just written my post for tomorrow. And it’s all about birds on the roof … All I lack is a statue … Great minds, eh?

These are fabulous Elke 😀 A great one subject take on the theme. OK I might be bird biased 😂 A few more storks and I would have been in heaven. The Magpies comment made me laugh 😂
Thanks for joining in MM #56 😀

Thanks, Brian. The parrot was big surprise not just for the magpie, for me, too. — I added 2 more photos at the end of the gallery. Happy?

Oh yes Elke 🥰 The Storks are fabulous
I was so surprised to see Monk parakeets (green ones) in Barcelona

We have swarms of ring-necked parakeets here. They first appeared a few decades ago and are getting more. So far we have large populations in Cologne, Wiesbaden, Frankfurt and in the Rhein-Neckar area. But they are apparently moving north. Estimates are just under 10,000 birds. But this parrot is a large scarlet macaw. I thought it was escaped from somewhere but I learned that it is a pet who regularly has outings and returns home.

That is so cool that the Macaw gets a taste of free flying.
Around the north coast we have colonies of Little Corellas that moved in from over the mountains from the west during a severe drought in the 1990’s
