London Tree Illusion: Hundreds of Ring-Necked Parakeets Fool the Eye

In the heart of London, an ordinary-looking tree recently captured the attention of passersby. It is not because of its structure but because of the living green it seemed to cool and attentive from the distance. The tree appeared full of lush leaves, but a closer look revealed the surprising truth that it is covered with hundreds of ring-necked parakeets.

These birds cluster closely on branches, creating a dense, leafy appearance that easily deceives the eye. The illusion is particularly striking during the colder months, when most trees are bare and their skeletal branches are stark against the sky. Amidst this backdrop, the bright green parakeets stand out alone, making the tree seem more vibrant than ever.
