Green Parakeet

Psittacara holochlorus

Green Parakeet

Adult Green Parakeets inhabit tropical deciduous forest, woodland, scrub, and towns across parts of northeastern Mexico and Central America. They fly swiftly between trees and use a strong hooked bill to eat seeds, fruit, blossoms, and buds. Adults roost in cavities and may nest in holes in trees, cliffs, or even termite mounds. Their harsh, carrying calls are often heard before the green birds are seen in the canopy.
