The sun conure’s call can carry for miles and helps them locate each other in the wild while out foraging for food during the day.
A mature sun conure sports plumage in several shades of red, yellow, green, orange, blue, and in some birds, tones of violet.
A baby sun conure begins life with feathers that are dark green and then, at about six to eight months of age, they start to molt into the vibrant grownup hues.
