Red macaws are common in Central and Latin America from Mexico to Ecuador, Bolivia and the Amazon Valley.
They live in tropical forests and stay in the crowns of tall trees.
What do macaws look like
Most have bright plumage of various colors: yellow, blue, red, although there are blue-gray parrots.
A distinctive feature is the wedge-shaped tail, the length of which exceeds the length of the body.
The macaw's beak is large, with a curved tip, and there are partially bare areas around the eyes.
What can a macaw parrot do
The macaw can be taught to speak, but it is much better at imitating different sounds: barking, meowing, whistling, coughing, laughing.
The parrot also imitates musical instruments quite well.
The first evidence of captive breeding of macaws dates back to 1250-1450, when the breeding center was Paquimé, located northwest of Chaco Canyon.
Why does the macaw parrot scream
Screaming is a completely natural phenomenon for parrots. In the wild, they use it to ward off threats from predators and warn their relatives of danger.
Nevertheless, at home, such a means of communication can cause discomfort to all family members.
