Bird types

Parrots are the most misunderstood birds in existence. It's up for you to get thru better relationships with your bird, for it is, what you make it so. Before knowing it, at a slightest trait overlook, this bird in your cage could create havocs of anxiety and frustrations in your life.
Basically, parrots need real training, otherwise, you will one day find out, it becomes an undesirable annoying character stealing away every bit of your peaceful, chaos-free moments. Among the countless birds in existence, parrots are perhaps one of the most loved birds. Yet did you know that there are about 360 known species of parrots today? Though parrots may be relatively easier to take care of, you still have to know the amount of commitment that you would need for a specific type of bird so as to get one that would suit your lifestyle. In general, larger parrots require more attention. As such, if you work at home or your work hours allow you to spend more time at home, then you might want to get larger parrots such as macaws.

Aside from the amount of time that you have to invest on your parrot, you also have to consider the finances involved. Birds in general are not expensive to take care of. However, there is still a marked difference between feeding larger parrots and smaller parrots. In addition to that, larger birds would definitely make a larger mess. Again, we go back to the time factor but this time around, it is all about cleaning up the cages and making sure that they have fresh food and water.

More than the parrot size, you may want to consider the physical looks of the bird as well. Parrots can live up to about 60 years if taken care of properly. Now you wouldn’t want to have a pet that you don’t like looking at, would you? It may seem petty but if you end up with a parrot which you don’t like physically, then you will probably not take care of it as well. That is why you should consider this aspect at the outset.
You would also want to look into the purchase price of the different kinds of parrots. Prices vary from pet shop to pet shop and according to your location as well. You should also realize that the more exotic the species is, the more expensive the bird would be. The bottom line is doing extensive research, deciding on what you want, and making a commitment to your decision.

The Canary sometimes called the Island Canary is a small bird in the finch family. This bird is native to the Azores, the Canary Islands, and Madeira. The bird was named after the Canary Islands, not the other way around. The origins of the name "Canary" are in dispute but may be derived from the Latin canaria, "of the dogs", referring to the numerous dogs kept by the inhabitants of the islands.

It is 12.5-13.5 cm long, with a wingspan of 20-23 cm and a weight of 15-20 g. It is yellow-green, with brownish streaking on its back. It is about 10% larger, longer and less contrasted than its relative the Serin, and has more grey and brown in its plumage and relatively shorter wings. The song is a silvery twittering like the Goldfinch. Its habitat is semi-open areas such as orchards and copses, where it nests in bushes or trees, from sea level up to 1,500 m altitude.

Umbrella Cockatoo is a large white bird. The white crest is very large and white. Small females weigh as little as 400g, and large males as much as 700g. Its length is 20 Inches. The female cockatoos have a dark reddish brown iris, the males have a black (although there have been exceptions to this generalization). It is found on the Moluccan islands of Indonesia. The Umbrella is very friendly bird. They are quiet for the most part, but do have a loud call.

Goffin Cockatoo is a large white bird. The white crest is small unlike the other cockatoos. The female cockatoos have a dark reddish brown iris, the males have a black. It is found on the Tenimber islands of Indonesia. The Goffin is one of the smartest of all the cockatoos. It has a very gentle disposition. Goffins can be very loud, especially if they desire attention.
