White Eyed Parakeet (Psittacara leucophthalmus) A White Eyed Parakeet, a rather uncommon species in my area (and in the country I think) in a bit of a dispute with two Orange Winged Parrots. I first saw one of these White Eyed Parakeets a couple of months ago and there are now a moderate sized population nesting in the area, my estimate is around 16-18 of them. While this is not a great photo and the quality is not that good (the photo was originally a silhouette) I still really like it for the species I captured as well as the moment between the three birds.

    1. Thanks you so much Ferdy! I have a photo of a Blue and Yellow Macaw as well but its very, very blurry and low resolution so waiting for a better photo to post. Posted 4 years ago
      1. Well, hard to judge, since you are humble enough to down sell yourself, so when you say it's blurry, it may actually be fine :) Posted 4 years ago
