About These Birds

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.
