About These Birds
Andensittich
The Andean Parakeet is a small parrot with a 21.3 cm wingspan, weighing around 43 grams. It inhabits open shrubby highlands and puna grasslands across the central Andes. It moves in noisy flocks, foraging for seeds and plant material in high-altitude habitats.
Blaustirnamazone
Die Blaustirnamazone ist einer der beliebtesten Ziervögel der Welt, geschätzt für ihre Fähigkeit, menschliche Sprache nachzuahmen, und ihr geselliges Wesen. In freier Wildbahn übernachten diese geselligen Papageien gemeinschaftlich in großen Schwärmen und fliegen paarweise zur Morgendämmerung zu Futterplätzen. Lebensraumverlust und Fang für den Heimtierhandel bedrohen die Wildbestände.
