BLUE-FRONTED PARROT

Amazona aestiva

Named for the distinctive blue patch above the beak, the Blue-fronted Amazon is one of the most common Amazon parrots kept as a pet or companion. They are ranked the third in ability amongst talking birds, but are best known for their singing which they will gladly perform for strangers. Aside from the crown, these parrots are mostly green and grow to be about 15 inches long. Unlike most regional parrots, their beaks are entirely black. They can be found in the forests, woodlands, and savannas of eastern and northern Bolivia, eastern Brazil, Paraguay, and northern Argentina.
