Large birds tend to live longer than small birds. The average age of most small birds ranges from about 2 to 5 years. Average ages for larger birds can range upwards of 20 years. Maximum ages for wild birds range from 6 - 20 years in passerines (SEE HANDOUT), and up to 42 years for the Laysan Albatross among nonpasserines. Some captive parrots have lived to be 80 years old.

now the age of nesting trees is 125 to 240 years... but thats tree age not bird age.
