Brown-hooded Parrot (Pyrilia haematotis haematotis)

26 January 2009, Rancho Naturalista, Costa Rica Same details as previous. This may be a young bird. Adults have a red patch on the side of the face. Surprisingly little is known of their natural history. They nest in tree cavities, but their eggs have never been described. Panasonic DMC-LZ5 / Nikon FieldScope 3 / 30X WA hand-held (no adapter)
