I live near a rainforest in Brazil. It is amazing, and so very different from the jungle we are in here in the United States.
That’s my main point. The rainforest we are in in Brazil is the same as the rainforest in the United States. The same flora and fauna as Mexico and Brazil, but different weather patterns, different rainfall, different temperatures, different seasons, and different seasons overall.
Bolivian rainforests are the world’s largest tropical rainforest system. The Amazon rainforest, which lies to the east of the Andes mountain ranges, is the largest and most diverse rainforest system in the world. The area covered by the rainforest was roughly the size of the state of Oregon when it was created around 15 million years ago.
As in the Amazon, the Bolivian rainforest covers an area roughly the size of the state of Oregon when it was created 15 million years ago, and it covers much of what is now Bolivia. There are over 4 million people living in the rainforest, about half of them indigenous people. The Bolivian rainforest is home to over 600 species of birds and more than 200,000 plant species.
It’s hard to imagine a better place to live than a rainforest, especially if you’re a bird-watcher. The rainforest is home to hundreds of species of birds, from the small common brown pelican, to the extremely rare endangered Tawny-capped Chickadee, to the rarer Guira Guira, to the much rarer Amazonian Parakeet.
The Bolivian rainforest may not have a lot of people, but it is so full of biodiversity, there are so many different species, that you don’t even realize that you are living in the rainforest unless you go out and see the birds there.
The Bolivian rainforest is a part of the Amazon rainforest, a massive, ancient, and diverse area that stretches all the way from Colombia to Peru. The rainforest is also home to some of the largest concentrations of birds in the world, ranging from the endangered species of Amazonian Parakeet to the much rarer Tawny-capped Chickadee.
Here’s a little tidbit of Bolivian rainforest trivia. It is home to the largest concentration of parakeets in the world. The birds live in the area for up to three years, or longer in certain years, and they have been spotted in the rainforest for over 100 years.
The parakeets are quite rare, with only 50 or so breeding pairs in the entire world. But they do make up for it by being beautiful birds with intricate patterns and bright colors. They are unique to the rainforest, and are only found in the Colombian Amazon and Peru.
We saw the parakeets ourselves and I’m pretty sure that if you live in the Amazon, you have seen the parakeet. The parakeets are known to be the most colorful birds in the world. They have feathers that are made up of millions of tiny white and black flakes, each of which is a different color and texture. You can see the exact pattern on the parakeet’s feathers using a magnifying glass.
