Here's another of the 19 species of Parrotlet that I'll be releasing soon The Scarlet-shouldered Parrotlet is endemic to southern and northeastern Venezuela and adjacent northern Guyana, perhaps also Suriname. Disjunctly, it is found in east-central Colombia and eastern Ecuador, and eastern Peru to northern Bolivia; and eastern Amazonian Brazil from the Aripuanã River eastward to the Tocantins River, and in northern Pará, with a single sighting from Manaus. It is found in humid lowlands, chiefly terra firme forests, but also seasonally flooded várzea forest, extending usually only to 900 m but at least occasionally up to 1300 m, and considered commoner in upper tropical forest. The male's tail has green central feathers and red outer ones with black tips; females' tails are all greenish yellow with black tips. They eat flowers, nectar, buds, berries, seeds and fruits (apparently mostly taken in the early morning).
