"Some 32 species of these little jewels are now recognised and theres no finer guide to them than Rosemary Low. A devotee of the genus since the 1960s, Rosemary has vast experience of Pyrrhura in captivity. She has also travelled all over Latin America to study them in the wild. Rosemary goes on to offer a masterclass in practical husbandry. This is grounded in first-hand experience and is pure gold dust for the beginner who wants to know the basics of housing and feeding, but also needs expert advice concerning health issues and breeding problems. Part Two of the book offers a pen portrait of every Pyrrhura species, with unique detail on its behaviour, history and status. In fact unique is the best word for this book; I doubt anyone else could have written it. If you love conures, snap it up.
