Timneh parrot
The Timneh parrot (''Psittacus timneh''), also known as the Timneh grey parrot or Timneh African grey parrot, is a West African parrot that is variously considered a subspecies of the African grey parrot ''Psittacus erithacus timneh'', or a full species ''Psittacus timneh''. In aviculture it is often referred to by the initials TAG and is commonly kept as a companion parrot.
==Description==
Growing to in length and weighing , the Timneh is a medium-sized parrot. Its plumage is mainly a mottled grey, with a white face mask and pale yellow eyes. Compared with the only other recognised ''Psittacus'' species, often known as the African grey parrot or Congo African grey parrot (''Psittacus erithacus''), the Timneh is smaller and darker, with a dull, dark maroon (rather than crimson) tail and a horn-coloured patch on the upper mandible.〔BirdLife International. (2012). Species factsheet: ''Psittacus timneh''. Downloaded from http://www.birdlife.org on 2012-06-27.〕 As in the nominate species, the Timneh parrot is also a very intelligent bird and a skilled mimic. The Timneh parrot may be less nervous and more outgoing around human beings, and can learn to talk at a younger age than the Congo grey.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://animal-world.com/encyclo/birds/greys/timneh.php )〕
