We birded down river from the city of Requena along Supay Creek the morning of Tuesday, January 17, 2012. Brad photographed a Blue Headed Parrot, Pionus menstruus, that was perched out in the open. The body has green plumage, a blue head, red undertail coverts, and a distinctive flight profile (steady, with deep wing beats; the wings appear not to rise above the plane of the bird's body). Temperatures were in the upper 70's with overcast skies and high humidity.
