I start with a bright color,

And continue with a dim,

You mark me with two letters,

If you don’t know who I am,

I continue with no tale and

Become excited as I go,

I end with the middle of

a brilliantly colored bird.

RULE: Line(s) produce(s) letters that you assemble in order of appearance!

Excellent!!! Explain how did you get there!

I possibly wouldn't have figured it out, if Woon hadn't cracked the last line (letter 'r'). As for the other lines,

I start with a bright color, "NEON"

And continue with a dim, "WHITE"

You mark me with two letters, "SP" (which I beleive stands for Some Person)

If you don’t know who I am,

I continue with no tale and "APE"

Become excited as I go,

I end with the middle of "R" (Courtesy Woon ) (I still can't figure this one out)

a brilliantly colored bird.

Was there an easier approach?

Think. Do.

Great job, I am happy could help you to solve that. and for the last line

What's the bird knows how to talk, perform many skill, and can be found most beautifully at Brazil?

You mean a parrot, more specifically a tropical macaw, right? I did not consider 'parrot' as an answer because generally parrots are considered green, and not colorful. But may be that is a wrong perception I have.

You got the

NEON and the APE right!

And here is the full explanation, however your works as well!

I start with a bright color, - neon lights, Neon in the Periodic Table of Elements is Ne = NE

And continue with a dim, - in the light bulb we have a Wolfram wire aka Tungsten and in the PTE it's W (compared to neon lights, the light from a light bulb is dim) = W

You mark me with two letters,

If you don’t know who I am, - both lines included, taxonomy - when scientists don't know the exact species they mark it with the name of it's genus and add sp. to it (for example Drosophila sp. - it's a fruit-fly) = SP

I continue with no tale and - apes have no tail = APE

Become excited as I go, - "go excited" - "go ape" = APE (but you only use it once, I added this line because I thought it would be too hard to guess what's it about with only the previous line)

I end with the middle of

a brilliantly colored bird. - ara - and the middle is = R

Again, NICE JOB!!!

I think you have riddle there Woon!!!
