Here's Congo Agrican grey parrot:

Maybe I'll take a longer break time again but it's really unsure.

Thanks Martina :)
Only few people know that I'm writing own fanfiction. Because it is a bit complicated I started thinking about a verson for Fandom but I know it's so time consuming and it could bounce on this mini-encyclopedia again.

The next one is the green winged macaw:

In general about macaws:
They are the biggest parrots (the biggest three species: hyacinth, green-winged and Buffon's macaws).
Except taxonomic classification, there also is a division by their size. Mini-macaws are much smaller and are easier in taking care (but they still aren't easy).
The voice is loud.

Love it Roz! Only typo I could spot was under "Breeding Season" where "Solomon" is spelled with an "a". Otherwise, 5 stars!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Category: Psephotellus, Bourkes, grass parrots
In general these parakeets are calm. Some species are so quiet and their voice is friendly. Some people say that red rumped parrots are the best parrot singers.
They are hard to tame.
(I wasn't sure how to describe all these genera)
And the first species of this category:
Bourke's parrot.png

*WPT writes 4-5, but in my private experience, my Bourkes never laid less than 6 eggs
Voice: https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/8518

Edit: Lol I forgot about two things: incubation and to translate "i" to "and"

Are you sure there aren't so many spelling/grammar mistakes? (except for the mentioned ones)
Recently one person said me my grammar is terrible... but I hope it was just because I was so tired then... in other case prob I'll give up it

And also before I met you - after changing my search engine language to English, I saw how many spelling mistakes I had in my fanfiction...
