Red-Winged Parrot

The Red-Winged Parrot (Aprosmictus erythropterus) is a parrot native to Australia and New Guinea. It is found in grasslands, savannah, farmland, and woodland. Although the birds normally reproduce in the spring and summer, this might vary depending on where they are. Breeding birds typically use a hollow area 11 meters up in trees as their nest. Typically, three to six white eggs, each measuring 31 mm in length, are laid per season. While the male looks for food, the female lays her eggs. About five weeks pass while the chicks remain with their parents.


The average length of a red-winged parrot is between 12 and 13 inches or 30 to 33 cm. Brilliant red wings and a bright green body are shared by both sexes. The male birds have grey feet, an orange bill, a lower blue back and rump with a yellow tip, and a black neck. The wings of female birds are trimmed in red and pink, while their bodies are a yellowish-green color. Dark irises and pale blue color on the lower back help to identify females. Juveniles are primarily colored like females, with the exception of their orange-yellow beaks and light brown eyes. Females reach adulthood at around the age of one and a half years, while males do so around the age of two.
