KUONA
Medium parakeet ine urefu hwemuviri kusvika 36 cm uye uremu hunosvika 170 gr. Chimiro chemuviri chinodonhedzwa pasi, musoro mudiki, muromo wakakura. Ruvara rwakajeka - musoro, chipfuva uye dumbu zvakatsvuka ropa. Matama, minhenga yemapapiro nemuswe zvitema. Kumashure kwakasviba, mamwe manhenga emapapiro akaganhurwa neruvara rutsvuku, rwakachena. Iko hakuna dimorphism yepabonde, asi varume vanowanzova vakakura kupfuura vakadzi uye vane muromo wakakura. 6 subspecies dzinozivikanwa, dzakasiyana muvara zvinhu. Mamwe masubspecies anogona kubudirira kuberekesana achipa vana vakaorera. Hupenyu hunotarisirwa nekutarisirwa kwakakodzera ndeye 10 - 15 makore.
HABITAT UYE HUPENYU MUZVISIKWA
Zvichienderana ne subspecies, vanogara kumaodzanyemba uye kumabvazuva kweAustralia, uyewo pazvitsuwa zviri pedyo. Munharaunda dzekuchamhembe, maruva matsvuku anofarira masango emakomo, kunze kwemasango anogara achinaya mvura, uye masango eucalyptus. Kumaodzanyemba, shiri dzinofarira kugara mumasango akavhurika, dzinokwevera kunharaunda dzetsika. Iyi mhuka inogona kunzi inogara, zvisinei, vamwe vanhu vanogona kufamba. Shiri diki dzinowanzoungana mumapoka ane ruzha anosvika makumi maviri, asi shiri dzakura dzinogara mumapoka madiki kana maviri maviri. Shiri dzinogara mumwechete. Maererano nezvidzidzo zvemazuva ano, shiri idzi dzinosarudza subspecies nekunhuhwirira. Uye zvakare chokwadi chekuti mahybrids ari pakati pe subspecies anopokana nezvirwere pane akachena marudzi. Katsi, imbwa, uyewo makava mune mamwe matunhu vavengi venyama. Kazhinji, vakadzi vemhando imwe chete vanoparadza mabatiro evavakidzani vavo. Vanodya zvakanyanya pambeu dzezvirimwa, maruva, buds eucalyptus nemimwe miti. Vanodyawo michero nemabheri, pamwe chete nezvimwe zvipembenene. Chinhu chinonakidza ndechekuti shiri hadzibatanidzi mukuparadzira mbeu dzezvirimwa, sezvo dzichitsenga mhodzi. Kare, shiri idzi dzaiwanzourayiwa nevarimi, sezvo dzaikuvadza chikamu chikuru chezvirimwa.
KUSVIRA
Nguva yekuisa matendere muna Nyamavhuvhu-Ndira kana Kukadzi. Kazhinji, pakugadzira dendere, vaviri vacho vanosarudza gomba mumiti yeeucalyptus paurefu hunosvika 30 m. Ipapo vaviri vacho vanodzika dendere kusvika pakukura kwavanoda, vachitsenga huni nemiromo yavo uye vachivhara pasi nemachipisi. Hadzi inokandira mazai anosvika matanhatu mudendere uye inoayamwisa yega. Mukono unomudyisa nguva yese iyi uye anorinda dendere, achidzinga vakwikwidzi. Incubation inotora mazuva makumi maviri. Hukwana dzinozvarwa dzakafukidzwa pasi. Kazhinji vakadzi vanochochonya kupfuura varume. Kwemazuva matanhatu ekutanga, hadzi chete inodyisa nhiyo, mukono unobatana mushure. Pamasvondo mashanu dzinobhururuka dzichibva mudendere. Kwenguva yakati vachiri kugara nevabereki vavo vanovapa zvokudya. Uye gare gare dzinorasika dzichiva mapoka eshiri duku dzimwe chetedzo. Panosvika mwedzi 6, vanova neminhenga yevanhu vakuru vobva vakura pabonde.
