This Nanday Conure or black-hooded green parakeet was a brief visitor to our classroom last week. We all admired this beautiful bird that I found on my porch stoop. The parrot is part of an unusual community of these birds originally from the pantanal region of South America. A few pets were released in the wild and have flourished here in St Pete. This one was somehow injured and allowed me to shelter it for the night.
Isabelle and her mom took the parrot to the Suncoast Seabird Sanctuary after school. It is getting the care it needs and will be put up for adoption. Who knows?
