Yellow-crowned Amazon
The Yellow-crowned Amazon is a large green parrot with a short tail. The yellow patch on crown is usually obvious but can be small. In flight, look for red patches on secondaries and red on shoulders.
They have a wide distribution in the lowlands of northern South America. Occurs in forests, usually seen flying over in pairs or small flocks, or perched in the canopy. These parrots were everywhere in the Oasis Park, constantly flying about and very, very noisy. Cornell All About Birds
