| Unlike many larger parrots, fig parrots feed very quietly on the kernels of many tiny seeds, including those of figs, buttonwood and ironwood. |
| The three dominant tree species of the forest canopy are sugar maple, ironwood, and white ash. |
| Sugar maples commonly share the forest with ironwood, beech, basswood, white ash, black cherry, yellow birch, white pine, and red oak. |
| When I investigated, I found all five young perched in a row about fifteen feet up in a leafy ironwood tree. |
| Yet in another area hit by a recent heavy rain, the ironwood trees and the spiny ocotillos are flush with new green leaves. |
| I'm using blackwood, beefwood, Qld maple and Qld walnut, several myrtles, she-oak, ironwood, vic. ash, minnerichi, mulga, fig. jarrah and wandoo. |
