Media notes
The El Oro Parakeet is one of the rarest parrots in the world and has an highly Endangered status. It is endemic to a small.....region in southwest Ecuador where habitat destruction is continuing at an alarming rate. Luckily, part of the population is being actively protected by the Jocotoco Foundation and birds are nesting successfully in nest boxes put out by volunteers.Photo from HBW World Bird Photo Contest 2014.
