Monk Parrots are not from Central America. They are from the subtropical and temperate zones of Argentina and some of the surrounding areas. Their ability to flourish in temperate zones have allowed them establish feral populations in Europe and North America. I believe there is a feral population in Mexico. I recall there is a population in New York. They are the only parrots to build a nest of sticks. Most parrots build nests in hollow trees.
The term parakeet refers to parrots with long tails.
Quaker parrots belong to the subfamily Arinae (Neotropical parrots) Amazon Parrots and Macaws are also in this sub family.
My buddy Teddy the Yellow Naped Amazon has carefully proof read this for accuracy.

Nice shot of a very pretty bird.
What really surprises me is that you've kept your XP computer still working after all these years. Congrats.

You are suggesting that this photo should not have been posted? Only a perfectly composed and executed, flawlessly processed, 200% perfect photo should? I will remember that, should I ever be brave enough to submit one of my pictures.
