    They control their own population by keeping their flock under about 40 parrots and we are the ones who brought them here. Why get rid of these birds?

    If the excuse is that they occasionally cause power outages, then we should also get rid of raccoons, squirrels, chipmunks, and other pestering foraging animals. They may not have, but could have, migrated here naturally, they definitely thrived here naturally.
