A green parakeet, surviving the recent cold spell in Redhill, south London.
From the BBC:
Parakeets are originally from India. So why are they able to survive - and thrive - here?
Bedecked with emerald green feathers and a rose-red beak, the ring-neck parakeet brings a touch of tropical glamour to suburban gardens in London and the South East.
"They actually originate from the foothills of the Himalayas, so they don't need it to be that warm to live comfortably," says Andre Farrar of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds.
