Eclectus Parrot

The Eclectus Parrot is native to the Maluku Islands (Moluccas), northern Australia, New Guinea and surrounding islands, Sumba, and the Solomon Islands in Southeast Asia and Oceania. Because the male and female species are so different from each other, the name "Eclectus" is derived from the term "eclectic."This kind of wild bird is commonly raised as a pet. Its chirp has a decibel level of 115.

The male is primarily bright green, with a golden tinge to his head. The primary colors are blue, with red flanks and underwing coverts. It has a small band of creamy yellow around the edge of its tail, which is dark grey with creamy yellow below, and the tail feathers are green in the middle and bluer as they come closer to the borders. The rear and wings of the great Eclectus Parrot female are darker than the rest of the body. The mantle and underwing coverts deepen to a purple hue, and the wing is bordered in a mauve-blue color. Above the yellowish-orange margin, the tail is more orange-tipped with yellow beneath.
