Hey Birdwatchers,
 
I have a wierdy........a parakeet of some sort.here in Charlotte Park, West 
Nashville, Davidson County.  I don't know what it is and cannot find my book>  
It is budgie length, but fatter.  It's mostly greem with an azure blue rump, 
an orange forehead. a fleshy orange beak and pale underneath.  It's fair tame 
and posed well, so I have it documented.  I noticed it when it up to the glass 
on my French door.  It has been calling like crazy and just flew out of sight 
toward the next house.  I no longer hear it calling.  It is BEAUTIFUL.  Can 
anyone suggest a viable I.D.?
 
THIS IS NOT AN APRIL FOOL'S DAY JOKE.  I suspect that it is someone's pet 
that escaped.  Seemed pretty tame.
