    It's Machu and Picchu's favorite day of the year—#WorldParrotDay! 🦜 Blue and gold macaw populations are decreasing due to habitat loss and pet trade. You can make an impact at home protecting these intelligent birds by recycling aluminum and using recycled paper products! ♻️ t.co/wxWUan2Tlv

  5. The world is full of intelligent, beautiful and rare parrots, but they're falling victim to wildlife trafficking. Thankfully, researchers have figured out how to use DNA databases to protect our feathered friends.

    So, how does the use of genomic forensics help protect parrots? And what is a DNA database?

    To recognise World Parrot Day, we asked Dr George Olah of The Australian National University for the facts; here is 60 Seconds of Science.⁠youtu.be/jPuoFvld6_U

  6. Parrots are known for their ability to talk and mimic sounds, but they don’t have vocal chords. They make sounds by expelling air across the mouth of the trachea in an organ called the syrinx. Different sounds are produced by changing the depth and shape of the trachea.

  8. Happy #WorldParrotDay!🦜 Parrots carry #zoonotic pathogens like Chlamydia psittaci. We identified a strain in a pet #parrot, highlighting transmission routes & health risks. Let's celebrate these birds while raising #HealthAwareness about #ZoonoticDiseases

    🦜 When a hawk-headed parrot gets excited, happy or angry, it raises the red feathers at the nape of its neck, forming a fan around its head. Celebrate #WorldParrotDay by visiting our hawk-headed parrot siblings, Sonic and Boomer, in Amazonia! 👋 VISIT: t.co/dX755VgyGT. t.co/xcHm7zjwma

  11. I just found out it's World Parrot Day!

    We have some amazing native parrots here in Aotearoa New Zealand. From left to right, the small but charming kākāriki, the inquisitive forest-dwelling kākā, and the world-famous for cleverness (and destroying cars) kea.
