@catter70 Welcome back!🥰  I just read they are also found in Hawaii, Louisianna, North Dakota and the state of Washington as escaped birds from private collections or ornamental bird farms!😊

 

THANK you SO much for revisiting and keeping me on my toes! I found out even more information thanks to your curiosity!🤗

Just gorgeous.  Must make them a sitting target in the wild.   The face is so parakeet like and parts of body remind me of a small parrot. This is truely a feast for the eyes. A riot of color

Okay .........     If the males need to have the brighter plumage to impress the females .....  

 

Why is it human females go berserk with makeup products, hair preparations and fashions every season?  Trying so hard to impress the men?  

 

The men aren't trying to impress the females nearly enough!

 

What's THAT about?    Anybody have a theory?
