Hi all, My parents live in Bethany and I get to look for the Monk parakeets once in a while. I have looked at Silver Lake on three occassions and only saw them flying over the lake once. You'll hear them before you see them. I got a much better look at them last year during Thanksgiving weekend, when I saw 3 sitting on a phone line along Rt.1 about 1.5 miles from the big shopping outlets. The lessen here is, they could be anywhere in the Rehobath Area. Imagine my surprise when I saw 3 greenish blue looking birds hanging out by a major road. Had it not been for the traffic jam, I would have never noticed. Christine Taylor Reston VA
