More like they're looking for a place to breed, not feed!

These will be ring-necked parakeets. Their diet is fruit, seeds, and nuts, not baby birds or eggs.

I have a pair of Ring-necks that keep visiting my garden, I'm really hoping they'll stay around.

As Fred says they are fruit and seed eaters and though captive ones would eat chicken if offered I highly doubt the wild ones would eat young birds.

They are the colourful bright green ones, too big to get into the box hole anyway. Do they nest in boxes, we have one nearby with a larger hole, not sure if they have been in there.
