A parrot is a bird.
Parrots come in many colors. They can be green, blue, yellow, red, black, or white. Many of them have three or four colors.
There are many kinds of parrots.
The smallest ones are about as long as your middle finger. They weigh less than two American quarters.
The biggest ones are as tall as a four year old boy! They weigh about as much as a bowling ball. Your arm would really get tired carrying that bird around!
