The Crimson-fronted Parakeet was one of the common birds I saw while in Costa Rica. It is not a common bird for me I thought they were pretty cool. It was neat to see groups of them fly in and make all kind of noises. Their plumage is primarily green but with a red forehead. Their food is fruit, nuts and seeds.
This is also my entry for Outdoor Wednesday and Nature Notes. Thanks to Susan and Michelle for hosting these fun memes.

Beautiful! That 2nd shot is AMAZING!
What a beautiful bird. I love the photo of them with a misty background and one taking flight.
Such beautiful birds. I love their colours. Great captures, Eileen!
Do the parrots speak Spanish?
This bird seems to utilize red as a stylish detail, a little red on bill and wing truly goes a long way in this distinctive parrot. Hopefully his chatter sounds as nice as he looks!
Costa Rica looks like paradise and your bird photos are stunning. Anything that green and cute just has to be noisy!
Great choice for Ruby Tuesday too.
Green - the colour of hope, that future generations will be able to see such beauty as well. Brilliant photography ! Please have a wonderful Wednesday.

Costa Rica is such a beautiful, lush environment - and supposrts such a wonderful array of birds - which you got some really great photos of!
We must have been in the county at about the same time, but we didn't make it to Tortuguero (this time)
Looking forward to more of your photos!
