The Eclectus parrot is a tropical bird found in forests in parts of Australia and Indonesia. Males and females have highly contrasting colors, with emerald green males and red females. They eat fruits, nuts, and plant buds and blossoms. Eclectus parrots live in trees away from predators and have an incubation period of 26 days before chicks fledge from the nest around 84 days after hatching. When first discovered, people mistakenly thought male and female Eclectus were different species because of their vividly contrasting plumage.
