A beautiful and easy-to-build model of a Parrot with Brazilian colors, by Education Scholastic , British website.


Parrots, also known as psittacines, are birds of the roughly 372 species in 86 genera that make up the order Psittaciformes, found in most tropical and subtropical regions. The order is subdivided into three superfamilies: the Psittacoidea ('true' parrots), the Cacatuoidea (cockatoos) and the Strigopoidea (New Zealand parrots). Parrots have a generally pantropical distribution with several species inhabiting temperate regions in the Southern Hemisphere as well. The greatest diversity of parrots is found in South America and Australasia.


Um bonito modelo fácil de montar de um papagaio com as cores da bandeira brasileira, do site inglês Education Scholastic. O papagaio (também conhecido como louro, ajeru, ajuru, jeru e juru), é uma das muitas aves pertencentes à ordem dos Psitaciformes, família Psittacidae, principalmente do gênero Amazona. Vive cerca de 100 anos e, regra geral, forma um casal para toda a vida. Os papagaios têm, como características, um bico curvo e penas de várias cores, variando muito entre as diferentes espécies. Alguns papagaios são capazes de imitar sons e, inclusive, a fala humana. A família Psittacidae inclui, também, as araras, periquitos, maracanãs, jandaias e apuins.
