Salmon-crested Cockatoo
As its name suggests, the wild Salmon-crested Cockatoo is found only in Indonesia's Maluku Islands; elsewhere you will only see captive birds. Due to increasing hunting and habitat destruction, its numbers have dropped sharply, and it is now listed as a Vulnerable species.
Coal Tit
Many caged Coal Tits are male birds — the reason is simple: the male's call is louder, which wins the favor of many bird lovers. Wild Coal Tits are widely distributed across Asia, Europe, and Africa. A pair signals the breeding season, while a flock means they are not currently breeding.

Eclectus Parrot
The Eclectus Parrot is a striking parrot with extreme sexual dimorphism—emerald-green males and deep-red females—native to Indonesia, New Guinea, and Australia. Quiet yet alert, it needs a large cage, a high-fiber diet rich in vitamin A, and never seed-only feeding.
