Maybe a Blue-fronted Amazon parrot (Amazona aestiva), do you have more pictures of it? And don't forget to submit this spotting to a mission, maybe "Birds of the World"? :) You can click on "Edit this spotting" on the top of this page, and on the right side, below location and date fields, you will find "Is this for a mission?". Let me know how it goes and don't forget to press Save! And welcome to Project Noah, Luciana, you have such a beautiful name.
