Macaws
Green-Winged Macaw
The breast of the Red-and-green Macaw is bright red, but the lower feathers of the wing are green.
Iridescent teal feathers are surrounded by red on the tail.
In addition, the Red-and-green Macaw has characteristic red lines around the eyes formed by rows of tiny
feathers on the otherwise bare white skin patch; this is one of the biggest differences from a scarlet
macaw to the casual viewer. This is the most common of the large macaws in the wild, and the largest of the Ara genus,
widespread in the forests of Northern South America. However, in common with other macaws,
in recent years there has been a marked decline in its numbers due to habitat loss and illegal capture for the pet trade.

Blue-and-yellow Macaw/ Blue-and-Gold Macaw
The Blue-and-yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna), also known as the Blue-and-gold Macaw,
is a member of the group of large Neotropical parrots known as macaws.
It breeds in forest (especially varzea, but also in open sections of Terra Firme) and woodland of tropical South America
from Trinidad and Venezuela south to Brazil, Bolivia, Colombia, and Paraguay. It barely extends into Central America,
where restricted to Panama. It is an endangered species in Trinidad, and is on the verge of being extirpated from Paraguay,
but still remains widespread and fairly common in a large part of mainland South America.

Hyacinth Macaw
Native to central and eastern South America,
the Hyacinth Macaw (Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus), or Hyacinthine Macaw,
is the largest macaw and the largest flying parrot species in the world,
though the flightless Kakapo of New Zealand can outweigh it at up to 3.5 kg.
In terms of length it is larger than any other species of parrot.
While generally easily recognized, it can be confused with the far rarer Lear's Macaw.
Their popularity as pets has taken a heavy toll on their population in the wild.
