Parakeets is the name for a number of (smaller) species from the parrot family (Psittacidae). However, it is not a taxonomic group. Thus, the name is used for several, unrelated species. As a result, the name parakeet can be used differently from country to country. The most famous parakeet is the Australian budgerigar, which is often kept as a pet. The ring-necked parakeet is also kept as a cage bird. Escaped birds have managed to build large populations in European cities. The species is now also found in numerous places in the Netherlands.
