Subspecies: clarae Adults I presume - likely a pair. Normally you see the species speeding screaming by making it difficult to see the blue wing patch, which is very clear here. It's funny that it's not possible to see the orange front from this angle, even though the side of the head is quite visible. |

Subspecies: ? Mostly identified by being the only parakeet expected in this area. Hopefully it´s the angle that makes it difficult to see the orange front... |
