Bronze Winged Parrot

Origin	It is a short-tailed stocky parrot found in forest and woodland in north-western South America.
Size	This species can grow up to 11 in(28 cm)
Lifespan	Can live 20+ years
Noise	Moderate, talkative birds.
Characteristics	It is mainly dark with a whitish chin patch and its upper chest is speckled with pink feathers. It has short red under-tail feathers. The rump, tail and wings are dark blue with lighter blue under-wings. The head is dark blue-green; the mantle, back and underparts are dark bronze-green with some blue tipped feathers and sometimes scattered red feathers. Its beak is pale yellow. In adults the ring of bare skin around the eyes is pink. Juveniles have whitish eye rings and their underparts are brownish.
Abilities	This species has an amazing ability to mimic.
Interaction/Time Requirements, Diet, Supplies Needed	Their diet in the wild consists of mainly fruits, wild figs, unripe nuts, flower and leaf buds, and some seeds. In captivity, they will eat most fruits including mangos, figs, guavas, bananas, melons, stone fruits, grapes, citrus fruits, pears, apples, pomegranate and papaya (pawpaw). You need to change food and water twice daily, and clean the cage at least once a day, replacing toys and broken climbing branches. Parrots do well in aviaries and cages. They don't like to be in crowded spaces and will sometimes be aggressive towards other birds if they don't have enough space. Parrots can also be hand reared, provided that they have a large cage and are taken out of their cage on a daily basis to prevent boredom, as it may result in the parrot pulling out its feathers to occupy itself. They require a warm habitat for the winter months. Do not allow your birds outdoors until all signs of frost are gone. Space is important and indoor cages should be as large as possible. A large cage is required even if the bird is going to spend lots of time out of its habitat with you.
