Hundreds of parrots fill the trees near a school in South Pasadena.
You may have heard their squawking before or seen their bright green wings sailing above the traffic; there are thousands of wild parrots living in the San Gabriel Valley. Lately, they've been flocking to one of their favorite spots, a preschool in South Pasadena, Calif.
