Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

Chunky mid-sized parrot with a brown back and green underparts. Note the yellow shoulder patches, which are conspicuous in flight and lacking in similar parrots. The pale green rump is also obvious in flight. Found in broadleaved woodland and lush savanna, often in areas with baobabs. Usually in pairs or small flocks. Calls are variable high-pitched squeals.
