Double Yellow-Headed Amazon

Double Yellow-Headed Amazon
(Amazona ochrocephala oratrix)

Mexico/Central America – "Colby," who says you can't have brains and beauty?! This parrot is not only gorgeous, but she talks, sings and imitates just about any annoying sound effect! She is show-and-talk only, since Amazon parrots aren't terribly fond of being touched. Recommended for all ages.

This species is on the CITES Appendix II List (may become threatened with extinction unless international trade is tightly controlled.)
