The Mealy Amazon is one of the largest and most widespread Amazon parrots, characterized by a pale, 'mealy' appearance to its green plumage and a small yellowish patch on its crown.
Where to spot
Humid lowland and foothill forests, forest edges, and gallery forests from southeastern Mexico through Central America to northern and central South America.
How to spot
Look for its large size and the 'frosted' or 'mealy' appearance of its green feathers, along with the yellowish crown patch. Listen for its deeper, less shrill calls.
When to spot
Active throughout the day, though less vocal than other Amazons. It is a resident species.
