The Parakeets and The Ginkgo Tree at Hide Park

Paperback (New Global Publishing Dec. 8, 2006) , Pap/DVD edition
In this whimsical story, hundreds of parakeets magically appear from nowhere and reside in an ancient spiritual Ginkgo Tree at Hyde Park. This fanciful tale is based on a true story, which is short of miraculous. No one knows how the hundreds of parakeets had turned up in the tree. The Ginkgo Tree is a living fossil. It has been around for millions of years and has migrated from China to USA. It is a hardy tree that seems to survive urban environment. I chose this magical and ancient tree to serve as a nurturing tree for the migrate parakeets.
