Quaker Parrots (Monk Parakeets)
The nest behind the dish, may occupy dozens of mated pairs. Each pair, has it's own residence in this "Condo". Individual units are attached to the structure, creating an apartment bldg., or condo like structure. Each unit consists of three chambers, entrance, living quarters, and bed room. The bed room's main purpose, is for incubation, and weening the young.
The Monk Parakeet is the only species of Parrot, that builds a stick nest.
