About The Colorful Parrot
Parrots are among the most brilliantly colored creatures on earth, their feathers ranging from deep scarlet and sunlit gold to vivid emerald green. In the wild, they gather in noisy flocks high in the forest canopy, cracking seeds with powerful beaks and filling the air with calls that carry for miles. From the sweeping tail of the macaw to the jeweled flash of a lorikeet darting through blossoms, every species carries its own quiet masterpiece of color.
