Red Rump Parakeet
This species is mainly a dull green in hens. The male is a darker green on the back with a bright green covering the head, chest and upper tail coverts. There is a blue suffusion on the mantle and primary wing coverts and a breight red rump on the male birds. There are occasionally hens with a few faint red feathers on the rump but normally it molts out as they mature. The underbelly of both sexes is yellow but more pornounced on the male Red Rump Parakeets. The eyes are dark and the legs are flesh colored.
