Red-lored Parrot / Red-lored Amazon

A medium-sized amazon parrot of lowland tropical forests from eastern Mexico and Central America to northwest Ecuador and Venezuela, red-lored amazons have a distinctive red forehead patch, yellow cheeks, and predominantly green plumage with blue on the crown. They live in pairs that maintain lifelong bonds and join larger flocks at communal roost sites. One of the more common amazon species in aviculture globally, they are valued for their speech, intelligence, and affectionate temperament.
