Maybe you don't like non-native species; so move to Germany. In the meantime, in Austin there's a thriving colony of aliens right smack (almost) in the heart of American athletics, and by this we mean there are parakeets living right next to the Krieg sports field. These feisty green birds with their nests amid the floodlights and electrical wiring are technically Monk Parakeets and have been in Austin for roughly 30 years. The local population was greatly augmented, we hear, when one Austinite released more than 15 birds in the early Nineties.
