Moluccan hanging parrot This picture was made against the light so I had to add brightness for the beautiful parrot to show its colors. It is not the best pic ever but it is a beautiful species that already deserves its place in JD :-)<br />
And it seems to be a very pleasant parrot given the name &#039;amabilis&#039; :-)<br />

Moluccan hanging parrot

This picture was made against the light so I had to add brightness for the beautiful parrot to show its colors. It is not the best pic ever but it is a beautiful species that already deserves its place in JD :-)
And it seems to be a very pleasant parrot given the name 'amabilis' :-)

The Moluccan hanging parrot is a species of parrot in the family Psittaculidae. It is endemic to forest and nearby habitats on Halmahera, Bacan and Morotai in Indonesia. It has sometimes included the Sula hanging parrot as a subspecies, but the two are increasingly treated as separate species based on their distinct differences in plumage and size.
