tropical birds

Rainforest feathered creatures

Tropical birds are birds native to the tropics—the warm regions near the equator.

The phrase encompasses parrots, toucans, macaws, birds of paradise, and countless other species known for vivid plumage and exotic appearance.

The resort was filled with the sounds of tropical birds.

In casual use, any brightly colored bird might be called tropical regardless of actual origin.
