Schwarzohrpapagei

One of the most colorful Pionus parrots, blue-headed parrots display a vivid cobalt blue head and neck contrasting with green body plumage and red undertail feathers. Found in humid lowland and foothill forests from southern Mexico through Central America and across northern and western South America. They inhabit forest, forest edge, and mangroves, traveling in noisy flocks to fruiting trees. Popular aviary birds for their quiet, gentle demeanor relative to many other parrots.

Glanzflügelpapagei

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.
