The Parrots are a very large family of easily recognized birds, generally restricted to the tropics, ranging from huge macaws to tiny lovebirds and parrotlets. Some are among the most spectacular birds in the world, including the Hyacinth Macaw (above) of the Pantanal region of south-central South America. It is the world's largest parrot at 100 cm long and 1.7 kg in weight, some 170 times heavier and twelve times longer than one of the New Guinea pygmy-parrots (Collar 1997). The Hyacinth Macaw feeds on the fruits of a small number of palms, and is local and elusive in the wild; fine articles on finding this wonderful bird in the Brazilian Pantanal are Ridgely (1983) and Whittingham et al. Although the Hyacinth is considered "vulnerable" (threats are trade in wild birds and loss of habitat), a much smaller blue macaw -- the Spix's Macaw Cyanopsitta spixii -- is the world's rarest bird. Only one lonely male is known to still be living in the wild in eastern Brazil at this writing (May 2000); to date efforts to introduce a captive-reared mate have failed.以上文字不算难，但是翻译起来比较麻烦，楼主自己花点功夫吧，有个别不懂的地方可以发消息来问。

Any of the 333 species of birds in the family Psittacidae. About 220 species of true parrots (subfamily Psittacinae) are found worldwide in warm regions (see parakeet). Many are brilliantly coloured. They have a blunt tongue and eat seeds, buds, and some fruit and insects. Their vocal apparatus permits many species to mimic human speech with great accuracy. The African gray parrot (Psittacus erithacus), intelligent and a particularly good talker, is about 13 in. (33 cm) long and is gray except for a red tail and white face; it lives up to 80 years. The 31 species of Amazon parrots (genus Amazona), also good mimics, are 10 – 16 in. (25 – 40 cm) long and predominantly green.

Parrots are birds of the roughly 372 species in 86 genera that may be found in most tropical and subtropical regions.Characteristic features of parrots include a strong, curved bill, an upright stance, strong legs, and clawed zygodactyl feet. Many parrots are vividly coloured, and some are multi-coloured. Parrots, are among the most intelligent birds, and the ability of some species to imitate human voices enhances their popularity as pets.（The most important components of most parrots' diets are seeds, nuts, fruit, buds and other plant material. A few species sometimes eat animals and carrion, while the lories and lorikeets are specialised for feeding onfloral nectar and soft fruits. Almost all parrots nest in tree hollows (ornest boxes in captivity), and lay white eggs from which hatch altricial(helpless) young.）
