Estate House birds - Jamaican Parakeets

GREEN CASTLE ESTATE

This pair of Olive-throated Parakeets also showed up most days. They copulated one day, so perhaps breeding nearby? This is an endemic subspecies (Eupsittula nana nana) which may get split one day. The Aztec Parakeet (Eupsittula nana astec) is common in southeast Mexico and Guatemala. The only difference I notice is a whiter bill on the Jamaican birds.
