Meyer's Parrot
Poicephalus meyeri
Least ConcernThe Meyer's Parrot is a compact parrot that uses woodland, savanna, or forest edge to feed on seeds, fruit, blossoms, and cultivated crops where available in sub-Saharan African woodlands and forest edges. It usually nests in tree cavities or cliff holes and may make local movements as food trees fruit or flower. Fun fact: many parrots use strong hooked bills and zygodactyl feet together like a climbing-and-feeding toolkit.
