The ring-necked parakeets (known in French as perruches à collier, and sometimes called 'rose-necked' in English) are believed to have be brought over from tropical forests in Africa to France in the 1970s by wealthy collectors, when it became fashionable to own exotic birds.
Having largely arrived via customs in Orly airport, France, many of them would go on to escape, breed, and make nests in local trees and parks.
Over half of the 8,000-10,000 in France are said to be in Ile-de-France, with their number having multiplied by 100 in the last 30 years.
