About These Birds
Tahiti-Laufsittich
The Black-fronted Parakeet was a small, extinct parrot endemic to Tahiti in French Polynesia, characterized by green plumage with a distinctive black forehead and a red crown patch. It inhabited Tahiti's forests and was last recorded in the late 19th century, driven to extinction by introduced rats, cats, and habitat destruction. No specimens exist in wild, and the species is known only from museum skins and historical accounts.
Alexandrine Parakeet
The Alexandrine Parakeet is a large, near-threatened parakeet weighing about 228 g with a wingspan of 42 cm. Native to South and Southeast Asia, it is recognised by its large red bill, green plumage, and distinctive red shoulder patch, and is one of the largest ring-necked parakeet relatives.
