About These Birds
Australian King-parrot
The Australian King-parrot is a large, striking parrot found in humid forests and forest edges of eastern Australia. Weighing about 237.8g with a wingspan of 42cm, the male has a brilliant scarlet head and underparts contrasting with dark green upperparts. It feeds on seeds, fruit, and blossoms in the forest canopy.
Black-fronted Parakeet
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.
