Seattle's got some wild parrots. Article's a bit dated but I'm pretty sure they're still around. https://archive.seattletimes.com/archive/?date=20030205&slug=

  The LA area has a population of wild green parrots as well. Supposedly there's a stable population of a few thousand, and they don't do much harm as they subside on non-native plants. They survive by navigating the different micro-climates in the LA area so if you keep an eye out, you'll notice them the same time each year, or when the weather is good for them. https://pethelpful.com/wildlife/Wild-Parrots-Multiplying-in-Southern-California https://pethelpful.com/wildlife/Wild-Parrots-Multiplying-in-... https://elementalreports.com/urbanization/2018/06/08/parrots-fill-the-soundscape-in-los-angeles/ https://elementalreports.com/urbanization/2018/06/08/parrots... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3MpCjGXhRU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3MpCjGXhRU
