Olive-throated Parakeet

Eupsittula nana

The Olive-throated Parakeet, scientifically known as Eupsittula nana, is a small parrot species found in Central America. These parakeets are known for their vibrant green plumage, with a distinctive olive-colored throat. They have a playful and social nature, often seen in small flocks foraging for fruits, seeds, and flowers. Their vocalizations are high-pitched and lively, adding to the lively ambiance of their habitat. Olive-throated Parakeets are commonly found in tropical and subtropical forests, as well as woodland edges and clearings. While their populations are currently stable, habitat loss and capture for the pet trade pose potential threats to their future survival.
