Blossom-headed parakeet

Psittacula roseata

The Blossom-headed parakeet (Psittacula roseata) is a small to medium-sized parrot species found in parts of South and Southeast Asia. These parakeets are known for their striking plumage, with a predominantly green body and a distinctive pink head. They are social birds often found in flocks, and their vocalizations are a mix of squawks and whistles. Blossom-headed parakeets primarily feed on fruits, seeds, and blossoms, and they are known to frequent wooded areas and forest edges. While they are generally adaptable, habitat loss and trapping for the pet trade pose threats to their populations.

Habitat: Wooded areas and forest edges
