Brown-hooded Parrot
There is little wonder why certain species of birds are quick to endear themselves to humans. Maybe their spectacular colors or unusual appearance catch our eye, but often it is because they exhibit behaviors that we can identify with. These Brown-hooded Parrots from northern Caribbean coastal slope Costa Rica have all of these traits. They are social birds and interact with each other extensively. This pair sat together for 15 minutes and made “eyes” at each other without every touching.
