Burrowing parrot
He is one of the most southern neotropical parrots. In Argentina, it occurs from the Andean slopes in the Northwest to the Patagonian steppes in the south. This species generally inhabits open grassy country but is also reported from wooded valleys with cliffs and farmland to about 2,000m. The race Cyanoliseus patagonus occurs in Central to Southeast Argentina. Burrowing parrots breed colonially excavating their own nest burrows by tunnelling into the faces of sandstone, limestone or earth cliffs.
