Wild parrots of SF spread to the 'burbs BRISBANE (AP) — The famous wild parrots of San Francisco's Telegraph Hill have spread their wings to the suburbs. About a hundred of the green birds have been spotted on the slopes of San Bruno Mountain in Brisbane, a city about 10 miles south of San Francisco. The birds probably migrated there in search of food, said Mark Bittner, author of the best-selling book, "The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill."
