It is characterized by its vibrant green plumage, a distinctive red tail, and a strong, curved beak. This species primarily feeds on fruits, seeds, and nuts, playing a vital role in its ecosystem by aiding in seed dispersal. Speke's parrot is known for its social behavior, often found in small flocks. Unfortunately, it faces threats from habitat loss and the illegal pet trade, leading to a decline in its population. Conservation efforts are underway to protect this unique bird and its natural habitat.
