The Blue-collared Parrot is a vibrant species native to New Guinea, distinguished by its mostly green plumage and a subtle blue band or 'collar' around its neck. It typically inhabits tropical forests.
Where to spot
Found in lowland rainforests, forest edges, and sometimes disturbed areas across the northern parts of New Guinea.
How to spot
Look for its overall green color with the faint blue band on the nape. Listen for its high-pitched, somewhat nasal calls that often reveal its presence as it flies overhead or feeds high in the trees.
When to spot
Most active during the early morning and late afternoon when foraging for fruits, seeds, and nectar. They are resident year-round.

This parrot species often forms small, fast-flying flocks that move quickly through the upper canopy, making them challenging to observe for extended periods.
