Field Notes

Description:

Very social bird. Most quiet of the Conures (my opinion). Not the best talker but is very intelligent. Loves to play and roll around. Great companion bird.

Habitat:

This is our pet! He's native to the South American forests.

Conures are great birds! You're lucky to have one as a pet, chebeague4 :)

I have a conure who looks almost identical to that!

This species does not have red on the beak. Our pet was chewing on something red :)
