Amazone à front bleu

One of the most popular pet parrots in the world after the budgerigar and African grey, blue-fronted amazons are recognized by their bright yellow face with blue forehead and red-orange shoulder patches. Native to central South America in Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, and Argentina, they inhabit forest, woodland, and palm groves. Highly intelligent with strong mimicry and speech abilities, they have been kept as pets since the 1700s. Wild populations face pressure from trapping.
