Parrot (crater)

Parrot is the remains of a lunar impact crater that has been almost completely worn away.

[1] It is attached to the southern rim of the crater Albategnius, and is located among the rugged highlands among the south-central part of the visible Moon.

Little remains of the southwestern rim of Parrot, and the other sections of the wall have been worn and smoothed by impact erosion.

A groove structure intersects the southeast and part of the northern rim, following an intermittent line from the south-southeast to the north-northwest.

By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Parrot.
