Pacific Parrotlet
Forpus coelestis
The Pacific Parrotlet inhabits dry forest, thorn scrub, mangroves, and farm edges in western Ecuador and northwestern Peru. It feeds mainly on seeds, fruits, buds, and other plant matter, using its strong hooked bill to husk food. Despite its tiny size, it is an active, agile flier and can be notably bold when defending a nest cavity.
