About These Birds
Marianinha-de-cabeça-preta
The Black-headed Parrot is a medium-sized, robust parrot with a jet-black head, bright yellow-orange nape and thighs, and vivid green upperparts. It inhabits humid lowland forests north of the Amazon River, ranging from Colombia and Venezuela to Brazil and Peru. It forages in the canopy and midstory, feeding on seeds, fruits, and berries, often in noisy flocks.
Papagaio-verdadeiro
The turquoise-fronted amazon is one of the most popular pet parrots in the world, prized for its ability to mimic human speech and its engaging personality. In the wild, these sociable parrots roost communally in large flocks and fly in pairs to feeding sites at dawn. Habitat loss and trapping for the pet trade threaten wild populations.
