April 22, 2023 - Maroon-bellied Parakeet, Reddish-bellied Parakeet, Maroon-bellied Conure, Reddish-bellied Conure, or Brown-eared Conure (Pyrrhura frontalis) Found in parts of Brazil, Paraguay, Argentina, and Uruguay, these parrots live in mountain forests, lowland woodlands, and forests near rivers. They feed on seeds, especially Araucaria nuts, as well as fruits, flowers, and some insect larvae, foraging in flocks. Breeding from October to December, they nest in tree cavities, where females lay clutches of five eggs.

design by @cogmented except i made him a slightly different type of bird :3

reference bird + alt under the cut

no blood version to give a better look at some of the stuff i did w/ the mask (there's some headcanon things in there. also the one red heart + two gold bc those are absorption hearts) also yes quirky feathers + scarf bc i felt like it.

bonus testing sketches & warmups

oh also the bird is a painted parakeet / conure (depends on who you ask, they're the same bird)

but in particular, i based a lot off of this one bird

i was initially going to base him off a martinique macaw, but decided it'd probably make more sense to base him off a living species, lol

#parrotx2 #parrotx2 fanart #this one gets to be a colored sketch :3 #theres a bit in there abt the bird being pyrrhura picta #very desaturated colors... im gonna do more neon things soon i just think this looks nice #more design notes than i usually give buuut i put a bit of thought into this

Painted Parakeet by Jay Packer Via Flickr: Known as Perijá Parakeet or Todd's Parakeet, this subspecies of Painted Parakeet is endemic to the Perijá Mountains of eastern Colombia / western Venezuela and is likely to be recognized as a full species in the near future. It is endangered, threatened by habitat loss in its small range. East of La Jagua de Ibirico, Perijá Mountains, Colombia

Hellou! I'm thinking of getting a GCC in the near future, but I've had only budgies my whole life. Can you give some tipps about typical GCC behaviour/body language/sounds that differs from budgie body language?

Thank you so much! ❤️🦜

Hello! Sorry for the delayed response! ^^; I'll try to answer this as best I can but a complicating factor is that Spencer was raised around budgies from the time he was very young, so he may show more budgie-like behaviors than the average conure (he definitely has a version of fwibbling he does, which is EXTREMELY cute but doesn't really sound anything like a budgie, lol).

In my experience, GCCs are a LOT bolder than budgies (although Spencer was hand-raised by humans, so he may just be tamer than average). If he wants to know what you're doing, he'll fly to you and sometimes directly try to take an object from you or bite it (or you :D)--a notable example of this is if someone is brushing their teeth while Spencer is out of his cage. He will fly to the person who is brushing their teeth--even if it means he has to cross several rooms!--and land on their shoulder and start trying to bite the toothbrush. GCCs have a lot of energy like budgies, but it seems to come more in spurts. Spencer will often be extremely hyper for awhile, then fall asleep in my hand for about 15 minutes, and then wake up and resume being hyper, so he alternates between "NO LEAVE ME ALONE I AM BUSY WITH IMPORTANT BIRD STUFF" and "YOU HAVE TO CUDDLE ME RIGHT NOW OR I WILL BITE YOU" I guess all in all, GCCs are more demanding than budgies and seem to require a lot more one-on-one attention. They WILL get themselves into trouble if left unsupervised--obviously budgies CAN get themselves into trouble if left unsupervised, but they don't always. GCCs ALWAYS will, lol. They're like budgies turned up to 11.

In terms of body language, the most notable thing is probably the territorial "snake dance". If a GCC is feeling territorial or threatened or sometimes is just mad about something, they'll do this weird little wiggly dance where they shuffle side to side and wobble their head at you. If you try to pick them up at this point, they WILL lunge and bite you, and they bite MUCH harder than budgies (when Spencer bites me, I almost always end up bleeding -_- ). They also do the "shpooping" thing (i. e., bouncing rapidly up and down on their legs) when they're excited about something or interested in something, and in Spencer's case this usually means "come get me and show me what you have" (if I don't, he'll fly over and look at it for himself, lol). Another notable one is the "no don't pick me up" move--if I try to pick up Spencer when he doesn't want to be picked up, he will rest his beak against the surface he's standing on like he's lying down. In this case he won't bite if you persist in picking him up, but it's also VERY hard to get him to actually step up (you may have guessed that this usually happens when he thinks it's time for him to go to bed).

In terms of sounds, in my experience conures don't make noise as FREQUENTLY as budgies, but they can be MUCH louder when they do make noise. Unlike budgies, conures don't sing or fwibble constantly. Most of the time, Spencer is actually either completely silent, or just kind of muttering a little to himself at low volume (either muttering a weird mash-up of the words he knows, or making the sound I refer to as "beakfarts", lol). BUT his flock call is EXTREMELY loud and can be piercing--it's an extremely high-pitched "EEEE" call, almost a whistle, that he may repeat a dozen times for no apparent reason. He also has a short, sharp, loud scream that's his alarm call (usually he only does this if there's a sudden movement outside the window or something), and a call I don't really know the meaning of that kind of sounds like "EE BEE" that he does sometimes too. He has also been known to yell "HEY SPENCER" or "SPENCE SPENCER" or "HI BABY" when he's trying to get my attention (I have tried to explain to him multiple times that I don't know how to spence him, but this doesn't seem to stop him)--obviously those particular words are probably pretty unique to him, but if your GCC learns any words, be prepared for those words to get shrieked at you when your bird is bored.

I hope this helps! Please feel free to ask any specific questions you may have, too!

me & my love for random guys and odd designs

(aka: i saw cogmented's parrot design and decided i wanted to take a crack at it but with some personal flair. also headcanon things... i havent finished coloring this [+ its just a cleaned up sketch] so its not going on the art blog)

#haunted ecosystem #apparition sketchbook #i TECHNICALLy wasnt going to be posting this art on tumblr but also i wanted to share this lil thing. i have like way too many sketches #i need to put together all my clown sketches bc he is my go-to warmup guy. he's so shaped. in my head he is a bird #ok anyways my dinner is getting cold im gonna eat #ALSO i decided im gonna make him a painted parakeet bc i thought it was silly. smthn smthn pyrhura being derivative of pyrrhura #which is a genus of parrot #i feel like its fitting #(this is why there's cheeks on the mask since i wanted to color it w/ cheeks like painted concures have)

October 27, 2022 - Santa Marta Parakeet (Pyrrhura viridicata) Found only in the Santa Marta Mountains of Colombia, these parrots live in and around humid forests. They eat fruits and seeds, along with some flower clusters, leaves, and lichens, foraging in small flocks of up to 20 birds. Breeding cooperatively, they nest in cavities in dead Wax Palms, and also in nest boxes, where females lay between three and seven eggs. They are classified as Endangered by the IUCN as their population is thought to be decreasing due mainly to habitat loss and fragmentation in their small range.
