Photo above made in Walsrode, those below were made in the
bird cage of mr. Luchmun in Paramaribo.
The bird has many colors: green on its head, black on its mantle,
turquoise-blue on its belly and purple on its breast, yellow on
its tail coverts and, invisible here, scarlet on its lower back.
And if you look well there must be another color because it is
called 'seven-color' in Suriname and all surrounding countries.
Each small square indicates the observation of at least one (group) of these birds in Surinam, the medium ones at least 4 observations on different days and the largest ones 10 or more. The color of each square indicates: blue for coastal area, yellow for savanna and red for rainforest. Nearly all observations near the lake!
