Media notes
Red-crowned Parrots in flight over California State University San Bernardino on 5 Mar 2016.
Observation details
While making a brief but unsuccessful visit to campus to photograph the male Tricolored Blackbird that was present here 29 Feb-4 Mar, I observed two Amazona parrots flying over campus in the vicinity of the rec center. They did not land, and it was cloudy so I could not make out details of the plumage well, but I photographed them well enough to identify them as Red-crowned Parrots. This is the first record of this species for the campus, although I did see two unidentified Amazona parrots on 30 Mar 2010 that may have been this species.
