The monk parakeet, also known as the Quaker parrot, is a small, bright green parrot native to South America. It is known for its distinctive grayish face and chest, as well as its long tail and vibrant plumage. Monk parakeets are unique among parrots for building large, communal nests out of sticks, often on man-made structures, and they are highly social and vocal birds, often found in large, noisy flocks.
