Gapyeong Begonia Bird Park

The bird's body is primarily covered in red colored feathers while its upper wing coverts displaying a vibrant blend of bright red, yellow, and blue feathers, giving off a rainbow-like glow.

Its diet mainly consists of fruits and nuts, though it also supplements its nutrition with flowers and nectar.

This bird often feeds on unripe fruits.

These unripe fruits have tough skins and firm flesh, and some even contain toxins that deter most other animals from eating them.

This gives the bird an advantage in food competition.

To neutralize the toxins, birds eat clay from riverbanks.

Their beaks are thick and sturdy, allowing them to crack open hard nutshells that other animals cannot easily break.

Due to excessive hunting and habitat loss from deforestation for agriculture, their population is on the decline.

The bird has a bluish tint (glass color) with green on its back, which is why it's colloquially known as "Glass Macaw" in native language.

While its entire body is blue, its cheeks are a pale yellowish-white that stretches above and below the eye and to the side.

The facial feather pattern of the Hyacinth Macaw is unique to each individual, much like a human fingerprint.

Its chest, the sides of its neck, and the interior of its wings are yellow, and its beak is black.

Its habits and diet are the same as other macaws.

This bird has a vibrant red and yellow crest, with its tail sporting the same colors.

Its face and body are peach-colored, while the inner wing feathers have a deep pink hue.

The feathers were commonly used for decoration by Australian indigenous people.

While most parrot species have identical or similar looks between males and females, the New Guinea parrot has markedly different coloration between sexes.

The male typically has a bright green body, with primary wing coverts in blue, inner wing coverts in red, and a beak in orange or yellow.

On the other hand, the female is predominantly bright red, with shoulders and inner wing coverts having a purplish hue, blue on the edges of the wings, and a black beak.

The indigenous people of New Guinea sometimes use the vibrant feathers of wild New Guinea parrots for decoration.

The bird has a bright green body with its entire head colored yellow.

The shoulder has a hint of red, which is not evident when young but becomes more pronounced with age.

The bird's wild habitat range is limited, and its population is not large.

Due to habitat reduction and excessive capturing, its numbers have drastically decreased since the mid-1970s.

Its population has declined by more than 90% in the wild, making it highly susceptible to extinction.

It has a strong social nature and is known to live in groups of hundreds.

This bird is also famous for its singing ability, particularly for mimicking various pitches.

Its diet primarily consists of fruits, nuts, legumes, flowers, and sprouts.

Only its tail and under-tail feathers are red, and the rest of its body is covered in grayish feathers, earning the nickname "Gray Parrot" It is also known for its high intelligence and is considered one of the best in language ability.

During active hours of the day, they perch on high tree branches and follow specific routes for foraging.

They are herbivores, feeding on seeds, young leaves, grains, and tree fruits.

This bird has a predominantly yellow color, including its tail.

When the birds are young, they have green feathers on their head and back, but their feathers become entirely yellow as they mature.

The outer feathers of the wings are covered in dark green.

Due to its attractive golden feathers, it has been subject to excessive capture, and with the deforestation of the Amazon rainforest, its habitat has decreased significantly.

As a result, it is listed as a vulnerable species on the brink of extinction.

It's herbivorous, consuming a diverse diet that includes various fruits, flowers, shoots, seeds, and crops.
