Mimmi – The parrot that whistles the blues
From Swedish TV video of Mimmi
the green parrot that whistles the blues
Not sure what sort of parrot Mimmi is, there are roughly 372 species in 86 genera that make up the order Psittaciformes, found in most tropical and subtropical regions. The order is subdivided into three families: the Psittacidae (‘true’ parrots), the Cacatuidae (cockatoos) and the Strigopidae (New Zealand parrots). Parrots have a generally pantropical distribution with several species inhabiting temperate regions in the Southern Hemisphere as well.
The greatest diversity of parrots is found in South America and Australasia. So Mimmi could be from anywhere, but the video was first aired on Swedish TV and for sure she is not from Sweden.
