Gaudi is not the only one to build fantastic structures in Park Güell. A loud and colorful band of Monk Parakeets build these enormous, fantastical nests in the palm trees there.

We ate lunch on a bench below this tree, where a very hungry young parakeet was squawking for his food.

We only had cheese and cherry pits, but luckily someone came with something good to eat!

A satisfied pair. Notice the family resemblance!
