Why African Grey Parrots Evolved To Have Red Tails

Описание к видео Why African Grey Parrots Evolved To Have Red Tails

African grey tail feathers are red due to pigments called psittacofulvins. Congo parrots are larger and have bright red tails, while Timneh parrots have maroon tail feathers.

Their tails keep predators away, defend territory, warn of danger, and assist with finding mates.
