The parakeet is more likely to be foraging for food. This is a feral ring-necked parakeet - scientific name Psittacula krameri.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>Osterley Hotel, on the corner of Wood Lane & The Great West Road on a Winters day in 1956. Crates out the front indicate that this was a Brewery day when a Trumans lorry would arrive to deliver fresh supplies of draught beer and crates of bottled beers. A hatch was located in front of the nearest corner window, which when opened up allowed the barrels to be lowered down to the cellars.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>Photographed in the Summer of 1958, when traffic was much quieter. Note the older type traffic lights, the original pub sign and the uncluttered appearance around the building. Oh! and that's a Ford Consul which just happened to get in the way.

Dist:0.3km north<br/>Viewed looking towards London, one can just make out Gillette's clock tower on left hand side over the roof of the Osterley Hotel and on the right hand side the roof of St.Francis Church. Note that there are cycle tracks on each side of the carriageway, grass verges, very few street lights and not much traffic! The houses on the left are part of a small development known as Leigham Drive, accessed by the service road, running parallel to the main road. Borough Road Teachers Training College is behind the hedgerow on the right.
