Nanday Conures

A couple days ago, I noticed a small Quaker Parrot nest, and heard a lot of noise. After parking the car, I was shocked to only find two Quakers. All the noise I was hearing, came from, at least, 100 Nanday Conures. These Nandays were all in one tree, along with two Quakers, and what appeared to be, one Cherry-headed Conure (also known as Red-masked Conure).

The Cherry-headed Conure originates from S.W. Ecuador-N.W. Peru.

The Quakers refused to be photographed. The Cherry-head was reluctant, but I got a couple candid shots. Some of the Nandays were more than willing to pose for me.

The Nanday Conure originates fromS.E. South America. Some of the Countries they can be found in are, Argentina, Paraguay, and Bolivia.

I took this pic in N.W. Deerfield Beach, near Boca Raton, and the Turnpike.

Blue-crowned Conure

This is a Blue Crown Conure. I was working inside and out, in North Miami. This little guy visited me several times a day. For a Conure, he was fairly quiet, but he did make his "Flock Calls". The calls sounded a bit like a monkey laughing.
Like most Conures, the Blue Crown originates from S. America, in particular, Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uraguay. Many other Conures come from this region, as well as the Monk Parakeet(Quaker Parrot). The Monk may, possibly, be the most prevailent Parrot(Parakeet) in Fl.
