About These Birds

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.

Biak Lorikeet

The Biak Lorikeet is a vulnerable, brightly colored parrot endemic to Biak Island in West Papua, Indonesia. It resembles the Rainbow Lorikeet but is distinguished by its heavier dark barring on the chest and more restricted range. It feeds on nectar, pollen, and soft fruits in the forest canopy, and is threatened by capture for the pet trade and habitat loss.
