Bronze-winged Parrot

A stocky, distinctive Pionus parrot with dark sooty-brown and blue-purple plumage with bronze iridescence on the wing coverts, bronze-winged parrots inhabit humid Andean forests of Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela at elevations up to 2,500 meters. They are one of the least colorful but most charismatic Pionus species, known for their quiet, affectionate temperament in captivity. They feed on fruit, berries, and seeds in pairs and small groups in montane forest.
