About the Jandaya Parakeet

The jandaya parakeet (Aratinga jandaya), or jenday conure, is a small Neotropical parrot with green wings and tail, reddish-orange body, yellow head and neck, orange cheeks, and black bill, native to wooded habitats in northeastern Brazil. It is a member of the Aratinga solstitialis complex of parakeets very closely related to, and possibly subspecies of the sun conure. The bird has a wide range, but is locally rare in the wild; they are common in aviculture, where they are known as "jenday conures".

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 47 recordings for this species: 37 CC BY-NC-SA · 10 CC BY-NC-ND. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.

As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
