	Amazon Parrots
		The most obvious of these is the characteristic parrot bill which consists of a downward-curving and somewhat hooked upper mandible which fits neatly over a smaller, upward-curving lower mandible.
		Most parrots are tree-dwellers, and they tend to be most plentiful in and around lowland tropical forests.
		Parrots nest in holes, usually in trees but sometimes among rocks or in termite mounds.

	Amazon Parrots
		Amazon parrots comprise many parrots that range in size from the small spectacled (white-fronted) amazon to the quite sizable double yellow-headed and mealy amazons.
		Amazons tend to be more independent birds and can amuse themselves much of the day if they are given adequate toys and space.
		It is best to train amazons to stand on your hand and NOT on your shoulder because of their unpredictability during "mating season." It is important to learn to recognize their moods and not pick up an amazon when its eyes are flashing and the tail is flared.

		Although parrots are popular pet birds, they need devoted care throughout their lives (which may be 30 to 40 years), and should not be bought unless this can be assured.
		In the Amazon, parrots are often kept as pets, being caught wild—often when a tree in which they are nesting is felled (see boy with parrot).

	Amazon parrot - Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
		The Amazon Parrot (Amazona ruhinyorrsofa) is one of several species of true parrots, native to the Amazon Basin, Central America, and the homes of American yuppies.
		The amazon is a stocky bird, smaller than a Macaw but larger than an African Grey, with the playfulness of a puppy, a beak that could eat a puppy, and piercing scream that could kill a puppy, thus enabling it to eat the puppy, thus allowing it to take the place of the puppy.
		Unlike other species of parrot, amazons typically begin encounters with humans by first making a judgement call as to what the person is looking for in a parrot so that it can choose to behave in the opposite manner.

	Re: does a caged solo female orange-wing amazon parrot lay eggs?
		Amazons are commonly bred in captivity, courtship usually begins in warm weather from April to early May. The hen will then lay two to five eggs which incubate for about 28 days.
		As with many parrots, the male will eat for himself and the female while she incubates the eggs and feeds the young.
		If you would like a really detailed explanation of how the egg becomes fertilized go to the site: http://www.jobird.com/eggstory.htm This site not only has a scientific explanation of how an egg becomes a bird but it also has a very humorous original story of the egg which you may find amusing.
