The Andean Parakeet is an agile and high-flying parakeet found in the central Andes, characterized by its mostly green plumage and pale bill. It thrives in open, rocky, and forested high-altitude environments.
Where to spot
High Andes of central Peru and Bolivia, inhabiting arid montane scrub, rocky slopes, and open woodlands, typically at very high elevations.
How to spot
Listen for their loud, chattering calls, which are often the first sign of their presence. Scan the skies for fast-moving flocks or look for them perched on large rocks or power lines.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, particularly noticeable when flying in flocks to feeding or roosting sites. Present year-round.
