You're in Florida, right? We've vacationed often in the Clearwater/Clearwater Beach area. I never knew quakers were wild down there. I know they're native to South America, but can easily adapt to just about anywhere. I've heard they're illegal to have in some states because if they accidentally get out & start breeding, it's feared they'll take over the native bird populations. They can even survive the colder climates, unlike other parrots.
The Eclectus parrots are supposed to be on par with the highly intelligent African Gray, but we have found our Quaker to be the most intelligent of any bird.
