There are hundreds of wild Parakeets flying about in our area of a London suburb -  We have a massive tree in a next door garden that on some days is bright green with so many Parakeets on every branch. 

So it could easily be a wild Parakeet. I didn't realise that they were not commonly seen all over the UK.
