Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

Small green parakeet with a short tail. Blue wing feathers are hard to see when perched but are conspicuous in flight. Found in a variety of forested habitats, including around forest edges, gardens, and agricultural areas, often traveling in loud groups. Distinguished from similar Tui Parakeet by dark eye, green forehead, and peach chin, and from parrotlets by its larger size.
