I may get the shots, but I don't have the audubon book or expertise. This is a first in a series of threads asking for ID help. Thanks. Here are multiple shots of the first two birds I need help with

Yes, this guy is that green. No PS help at all.

    Thanks. Not local. It was taken at the National Aviary in Pittsburgh, PA, in the rain forest section there.

    Unfortunately the Aviary only lists about a tenth of the birds they have on their website and the Rain Forest and Wetlands sections has a ton of them roaming free with no idea what some of them are.

    I don't think this is much help if its a rain forest bird. But good for identifying USA birds:
