The Maroon-bellied Parakeet was the most abundant parrot near the hotels in Itatiaia, though other types were glimpsed and heard, while walking around. The above photo was taken at Serra dos Tucanos Lodge.

The Maroon-bellied Parakeet, which is found in Eastern Brazil, is mostly green, with white eye-ring, light yellowish neck and chest, greyish ear coverts, some red on the belly and reddish tail. Bill black with light band at top and sometimes red visible just above.

The White-eared Parrot, which is sometimes lumped together, extends into Venezuela.

Madeira Parakeet

Bird name: Madeira Parakeet
Latin: Pyrrhura snethlage
Other: Santarem Parakeet. Tiriba-do-madeira (Br) • perico santarém (Es)
Family: Psittacidae - Parrots, Macaws
Range: SW Amazonian Brazil: Pará etc
Similar: Santarem Parakeet

In the Ber van Perlo fieldguide this bird is the Madeira Parakeet, though he mentions it might be classed as a subspecies of Santarem Parakeet. I’ll add an entry for both on the site.

My guide told me in 2011 that Madeira Parakeet had been elevated by one body (SACC?) to species level. I haven’t checked its current status with the IOC.

Anyway a group of them perched directly above us on a walk through the forest at Rio Azul Lodge, making photos almost impossible. The Madeira Parakeets were interested in the cecropia seeds.More photos...

Family: Psittacidae - Parrots, Parakeets

The Monk Parakeet is seen here in its true wild location, the south of Brazil, Argentina etc. However there are many other large feral populations, living elsewhere in Brazil, USA, Europe etc.

Above, a Monk Parakeet by the entrance to a large collective nest in the Pantanal. I saw a group of Monk Parakeets which had made their nest in a palm tree. It looked like there were several nests each with its own entrance, together well over two metres across. Monk Parakeets are the only parrots to build nests from sticks - most nest in tree holes.
