Thanks I think he is a pretty cute little boy. His colors actually look kind of similar to a peacock's.

Thanks everyone!!! Almost everyone I have talked to say they have never even heard of a pionus. But the best part is even with him being a rescue he doesn't seem to have any residual effects from being a rescue.

I love Pionus. They are some of the least known parrots, but people that haven't been exposed to them are really missing out on a special bird. I have a whitecapped female that is an absolute doll.

Your bird is stunning and looks to be in really good health.

I feel the exact same way!! It is amazing how quickly he took a huge chunk of my heart.

There is no such thing as a Blue "CAPPED" Pionus. There is a WHITE-CAPPED Pionus however. Yours is a Blue HEADED Pionus for sure......The people may have gotten it wrong or gotten confused......

Aww you guys who cares what the PROPER name is....come on now....all that matters is that he has found a forever home with someone that will love him.....
I have a black capped caique but in all my studying and reading about caiques I have also seen them listed as black headed......it doesn't matter to me...they could call him a white belly for all I care....I just love him to pieces......LOL

By the way,,,,more pictures when you can please....I am so fascinated by this species...can't wait to learn more.
