I am linking up with Wild Bird Wednesday and Nature Notes
For this week I am sharing my Olive-throated Parakeet seen near the Sittee River in Hopkins, Belize.
The Olive-throated Parakeet a lifer for me, is also known as a Conure or Parrot. They have a pale bill and a green head, back and tail. They have a olive throat and a bold white eyering..
They can be found in Mexico, Caribbean and in Central America. I found this bird during a birding trip from our Almond Beach Resort in Hopkins.. I hope you enjoyed my post and the Olive-throated Parakeet. Thanks for stopping by my post and for all the nice comments.

That's an interesting one. I'd sure like to see that in real life. Lucky you!
I am thrilled when I look into my back yard and see a "first time bird" for me . . . What thrills you must have . . . Traveling like you do and seeing your many "firsts" . . .
Interesting little Parakeet, Parrott Olive Throat . . .
I've never seen a parakeet in the wild but I've always wanted to :-)
great to see the conure out in the wild....
Pretty Bird

Love your parakeet photos. Now that's a bird most of us don't see everyday!
Such a lovely colour, and he's so cute!

What an amazing bird, is your lifer, the Olive-throated Parakeet. Hope you're having a great day. Jo
Your trip to Belize was certainly eventful with all these lifers. The conure is a beautiful bird. Congrats!

Beautiful colored bird !
lol, quite "eyecatching" little parrot
That's a beauty! Love the eye ring!
Now, this one is a new one for me...never heard of, or seen one before today.
Great photos Eileen.
Beautiful bird and photographed so well.
What a cutie! Love the colors. I haven't seen one of those before.
There seem to be so many beautiful parrots that I haven't see, so thanks for sharing this one.
Bold white eye ring he definitely does have! What a beauty. That was such a wonderful trip for you guys and thank you for sharing it with us.
Thank you too for your spelling correction on my Common Murres. I appreciate your help.
oh Eileen, you find the neatnest birds, beautiful captures!!
He does look more like a parrot than a parakeet!! You must have really enjoyed your trip with so many different varieties that you don't have at home!!
What a beautiful fellow he is!
what a beautiful bird, lovely photos
hi Eileen. greats find and marvellous shot. congrats on Lifer. love the white eye ring.
Oh Eileen,
how nice to see this parakeet, another one we used to breed in our aviaries! Not as colorful as others but they make great pets!
Thanks for sharing this! :)
Fantastic that you look at dragonflies differently now, I would love to see some of those you've got in your area!...
Keep well!
Lovely shots of this pretty little parakeet Eileen. He looks like he is enjoying himself on that branch. Have a great day :)
It is always so exciting to see something new and a bonus to capture it in a photo as good as this one. well done.
It is so worth it going to another part of the world. Lovely bird!
Oh he's a pretty boy-looks like he was just sitting there waiting for someone to come take his picture!
Hi Eileen,
a wonderful bird and a soft and gentle green. So beautiful !
Best regards, Synnöve
It is so nice to see these birds in their native habitat as opposed to a cage. Cute bird.. Thank you for linking into Nature Notes.. Eileen...
It's a gorgeous bird. How awesome to get to see it in the wild.
He's an interesting and beautiful guy.
He has lovely coloring!
So pretty!
Cool shot it almost looks like a painting
A wide eyed beauty!
Wow, these are stunning photos! I would love to get to Belize!
Hi Eileen. It looks a bit smaller and more compact than lots of other parrots I see on blogs (none in the UK). Very attractive though, and you took some nice photos there.
so wonderful eileen. Never been to the States. It's a wonderful place with 4 seasons.
So nice n wonderful. Welcome to this hot tropical rainforest Msia.
Beautiful coloring on the bird!
nice meeting this new bird in your nice shots
Ohhhh .... how beautiful this green parakeet. Really, when you are so much more beautiful and colorful birds that I'm constantly amazed that there are so many in the world!
