Mealy parrots (Amazona farinosa) are known for their social and vocal nature and often squabble as a way of maintaining hierarchy and communication within their flocks. These noisy disagreements can involve jostling for perches, defending favorite feeding spots, or simply reinforcing pair bonds through animated chatter. Squabbles can be intense, but usually brief and harmless. Photographed in Piedras Blancas National Park in southern Costa Rica. Nikon Z8 with Nikkor 500mm PF lens, ISO 400, f/5.6 at 1/1000th of a second.
