About These Birds
虎皮鸚鵡
The budgerigar is the third most popular pet in the world after dogs and cats, and by far the most common pet parrot. Wild budgies travel in enormous nomadic flocks that can darken the sky. Males can learn to mimic human speech, with one record-holding budgie having a vocabulary of 1,728 words.
Black-fronted Fig-parrot
The Black-fronted Fig-parrot is a tiny, compact parrot with vivid green plumage, a black forehead, and a short, stout bill specialized for extracting fig seeds. It inhabits lowland rainforests and forest edges of northern New Guinea. Like other fig-parrots, it forages high in the canopy, using its strong bill to bite into figs and eat the seeds and pulp within.
