Breed Name: Alexandrine Parakeet
The Alexandrine Parakeet, scientifically referred to as Psittacula eupatria, traces its origins to the lush woodlands and tropical regions of the Indian subcontinent, particularly India and Sri Lanka. This region boasts a diverse array of habitats, ranging from dense forests to open woodlands, providing an ideal environment for these parakeets to thrive.
Within their native range, Alexandrine Parakeets are also found in parts of Southeast Asia, including countries like Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, and Myanmar. Their distribution extends across a wide geographical area, encompassing various ecosystems and altitudes, from sea level to high elevations in the Himalayan foothills.
The Alexandrine Parakeet, scientifically named Psittacula eupatria, stands out as one of the larger and more visually striking members of the parrot family. Native to the Indian subcontinent and parts of Southeast Asia, this species boasts an impressive average length of 22 to 24 inches (55 to 60 centimeters), making it a substantial presence in its natural habitat and a captivating sight for bird enthusiasts worldwide.
Distinctive features of the Alexandrine Parakeet include its vibrant green plumage, which serves as excellent camouflage amidst the verdant foliage of its woodland habitats. Males sport additional adornments, such as subtle blue accents on their wings and a conspicuous pinkish-red collar encircling their necks. In contrast, females exhibit a more subdued green hue, often lacking the blue markings and possessing a less pronounced collar.
