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.

Magnificent large macaws. The largest of parrots - one metre from bill to tip of tail. Like many other parrots and macaws very affectionate with each other, often in pairs and grooming. Pouso Alegre Lodge in the Pantanal was an excellent place to see them.

They were chewing on an old stump in the early morning in a section of fields in Para that was a large roosting ground for parrots of various different sorts, and just getting ready to fly to their feeding grounds further north for the day.

The Blue and Yellow Macaw is a large bird, yellow-orange on the underside, blue on the upperside, large black bill, long tail - no other bird like it.
