Jim Elder (jime at eskimo.com) observed;
"Also of interest was some kind of parrot relative flying erratically over
I-5 in North Seattle on my way home last night. It was mostly white or
perhaps cream colored. My best guess is a cockatiel. My first thought
was Mourning Dove but as I got closer (It almost ran into the car in front
of me) it was clearly an exotic escapee."
how big was this bird? was the tail long and pointed or medium-length
and rounded?
