Journal Journal: The Differences Between Parrotlets

The differences between parrotlets are less stark, both in appearance and temperament, than may be assumed from their appearances. Though each parrotlet has its roots in the same species of bird, having come to diversify on varying locations and in many of the same areas over time, the differences between the two species are relatively small and more or less constant. The largest enough species to be readily distinguishable from one another are the smallest forest parrotlet ( Forpus spp. ) an

The Pacific Pacific

The Pacific parrotlet is a pleasing little green parrot on parrotilda hawksbill. It also happens to be one of the best friends we've ever had, who we've went so far as to name Parrotellou for. Actually it's the only true parrotlet I've ever known. It is reasonably sociable and intelligent, and was one of my best pet bird companions until he got severely old and died at the age of 14-years-old.
