What wildlife do you see on your rides?

[PamNY]

I watch a nest of monk parakeets on my usual ride. Lately, they've gotten even more interesting. A new bird is trying to join their family -- with only limited success. I think he's a lovebird, and he's allowed to hang on their nest or nearby, but if he tries to go inside, the monks chase him away.

It's quite poignant to watch. I haven't heard of feral lovebirds in this climate, so I suspect he's an escaped pet. Of course I'm anthropomorphizing, but it seems he's trying so hard to fit in. I do worry about him. I don't think he can survive the winter.

I'm in the process of seeking opinions about this little fellow from more knowledgeable birders.

ETA: The first photo show only monks; the lovebird is the colorful bird in the last three photos. Monks are green with white chests. The little visitor is multi-colored.
