Hyacinth Macaw

These glorious giants are quite captivating as they look at you with huge intelligence in the dark brown eye, quite unlike the grey-white iris of the ‘ara’ macaws. They have incredible strength in their beaks, and this needs to be a consideration when housing them. More sensitive than other macaws, they seem to display deeper emotions towards each other and can often be seen with a charmingly protective wing around a mate.
