About Lineolated Parakeet
The Lineolated Parakeet is a type of parakeet that lives in highland clouds and dense rainforests in mountainous areas. In the wild, this bird lives in flocks of 20 birds. As winter approaches, all lineolated parakeets move to lowland areas to find food. One of the cleverest traits of this beautiful bird is its ability to mimic human voices and whistles.
