Media notes
A flock of ca. 25 Golden-plumed Parakeets calling in flight as they circled above their nesting slopes, 2600m. Most seemed to be paired off, some having been investigating nest boxes far below.
Observation details
We watched numbers of distant pairs foraging and checking out nest boxes placed in Sierra Palm trees well below the trail. Then the whole flock—about 30 birds—got up and flew toward us, some landing at close range for good looks.
