Say “hi” to the largest flying parrot in the world, the Hyacinth Macaw (Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus)! It weighs as much as 3.5 pounds (1.7 kilograms) and grows up to 3 feet (1 meter) long. Besides its size, the parrot is distinguished by its rich blue plumage, with yellow rings around the eyes and bill. It lives in parts of Brazil, Bolivia, and Paraguay, where it uses its large bill to crack nut shells—it can even break through a coconut shell!

HYACINTH MACAWS IN FLIGHT Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus ©Laura Quick I was lucky to see a pair of Hyacinth Macaws in flight while visiting the Amazon Basin. Those I was not lucky enough to catch in flight, didn't try, just watched them circle around twice before departing. These are free-flying in the bird show at the Los Angeles Zoo. The hyacinth macaw, or hyacinthine macaw, is a parrot native to central and eastern South America. With a length of about one meter it is longer than any other species of parrot. It is the largest macaw and the largest flying parrot species, (the flightless kakapo of New Zealand can outweigh it). #hyacinthmacaw #anodorhynchushyacinthinus #©lauraquick #macaw #bird #birdsofinstagram #animal #losangeleszooandbotanicalgardens #lazoo #glaza #losangeleszoo #purple #beautiful #blue #psittaciformes #zygodactyl #beak #flight #biggestmacaw #secondheaviest #southamerica https://www.instagram.com/p/B8-tYMWn4-C/?igshid=pguts8tq1alz

Boo was such a pest at our friend’s that he had to spend a lot of time in time out earlier. He calmed down and ate a gingersnap cookie in the end. #stlpets #hyacinthmacaw #birdfriends #macaws #goffinscockatoo #goffins #boobird #birdparty #cockatoo #cockatoosofinstagram #bratbird #birb #birbs https://www.instagram.com/p/B3Q5Ys3Hs6l/?igshid=zip2g0e5xbmk

Rao and some lovely bird friends! I chose blue toned birds because they contrast the boy's yellow theme. Can you name the birds? #worldwatercolormonth #watercolor #traditionalart #rao #birds #macaw #parrow #magpie #hyacinthmacaw #budgie #finch #lovebird
