Here are some Carolina Parakeet sounds!

The Carolina Parakeet was once the most northerly ranging parakeet species, with some even ranging into southern Canada. It was one of only three parrot species native to the U.S. Found in the Eastern and Midwestern states, this parakeet was known for its social behavior, and loud calls. Here I try to replicate what they may have sounded like.

Unfortunately, deforestation and over hunting led to the decline and eventual extinction of the species. By the mid 19th century, this bird had already become rare. The last confirmed wild sighting was in 1910, and the last known specimen died in captivity in 1918.
