Glaucous Macaw
The glaucous Darling hahns macaw is among the rarest birds in the world. It is Critically Endangered and could become extinct in the wild.
The bird has been reported by aviculturists in various countries however the most recent sighting was reported in 1992. The alleged sighting was reported to have occurred in southwestern Paraguay, near the city of Corrientes. The bird was male.
Origin
The Glaucous macaw is a threatened parrot species that is native to South America. This majestic bird is distinguished by a blue feather pattern, and a strong beak capable of cracking open nuts and seeds. Glaucous macaws are known to form long-term monogamous families and both parents are involved in the raising of the chicks. They feed the chicks a diet of regurgitated food for the first couple of weeks after birth, before they begin to eat solid foods as they develop. Parents are also responsible for teaching young macaws to fly and hunt.
The glaucous Macaw is extinct, yet rumors of its existence continue to circulate all over the world. The glaucous Macaw is believed to be extinct by the 1800s because of logging and cattle grazing on yatay (Butia) palm groves where the birds would gather their food. The glaucous Paisley hyacinth macaw for sale is believed to be making a comeback and is often kept with its larger mate, Lear's macaw.
In terms of habitat, the glaucous macaw can be found in the sub-tropical forests of South America. They are usually found in areas that have plenty of palm trees, and they are believed to be extremely adaptable to a variety of forested habitats. These beautiful birds are territorial and will defend the feeding and nesting area from intruders.
There have been a variety of reports involving the glaucous macaw throughout the years, but most are considered to be unreliable. The most recent report of a wild event is a friend of Ridgely's that claimed to have observed four Glaucous macaws in Califomia. This is a completely absurd claim until it is verified with solid evidence. Many experts have concluded that the bird is likely extinct because there are no evidence of it in the last century. However they have always been willing accept a remote chance of its survival. If it survives it will be extremely uncommon to witness large numbers.
Habitat
The glaucous macaw is a striking bird that is renowned for its huge size and dazzling turquoise-blue coloring. Its long tail and wings accentuate its graceful and agile movements. The bird is an emblem of loyalty and love. Its beak is primarily black and is distinctive in its shape. It allows it to open seeds and nuts which constitute a significant portion of its diet.
The Glaucous Macaw is considered Critically Endangered by the IUCN and the IUCN states that it is a small population and is at a high risk of extinction. The species was once widespread but is now found in northern Argentina and south Paraguay and north-eastern Uruguay and Brazil, from Parana state to the south, where it nests in cliffs that run alongside major rivers.
Although there haven't been any credible sightings of the species since 1830 The Glaucous Macaw seemed not to be very rare in its limited range. specimens were taken until 1860 (in Corrientes). The last known living Glaucous Macaw was exhibited at the Buenos Aires Zoo in 1936 and is believed to be from Brazil.
The reassessment suggests that the species is a generalist and prefers the savanna habitat, which is interspersed with palm "islands" and riparian forest bands along river systems. It was a specialist feeder of palm fruit especially those of the yatay (or chatay) palm (Butia). However, it also ate ripe and unripe fruits, nuts, berries, and even vegetable matter. It nests on slopes that are steep or in cliffs, and also in tree cavities.
This bird was likely gregarious and social, just like other parrots. It was said that it could live to 14.4 years in captivity, and was a reliable breeder who reproduced year after year. In the wild, its life expectancy was likely to be between 50 and 80 years. This species was a potent disperser of seeds and may be a factor in the success of the palm yatay species in its natural habitat.
Feeding
The Glaucous Macaw (Anodorhynchus glaucus) is among the most magnificent of all the parrot species and its presence has an immense impact in its surroundings. This massive South American bird is known for its vivid blue feathers and eyes that are yellow, as well as the distinctive teardrop-shaped lappet that brackets the lower portion of its beak.
Up until recently, very little was known about eating habits of the Glaucous Macaw. The earliest detailed references that I have located are two works by H.W. Bates' "The Naturalist on Amazons" which was first published in 1863, and describes his 11-year journey in Brazil. Later, in his book "As Birds of the Brazilian Forests", he wrote about the same experience. Both of these references to the Hyacinthine Macaw (Anodorhynchus aureolarius) However, I have no reason to think that they are not applicable to this species.
It is probable that the Glaucous Macaw was a particular in the consumption of palm nuts, and also consumed other seeds, fruits, and vegetable matter in smaller quantities. This species' diet was likely affected by the clearing of forests to cultivate cattle and the cattle-ranching practices of early colonists, as well the felling of yatay (Butia) palms from which it received much of its nutritional value.
In the wild in the wild, the Glaucous Macaw was commonly found in subtropical forests with the savannahs and cliffs surrounded by palm trees where it nested in tree cavities and on rocky banks or in the top of palm fronds. The female incubates and then lays two eggs on average.
The young Glaucous Macaws are altricial, meaning they depend on their parents to look after them until they're fully fledged and can fly. Both females and males are extremely committed to their offspring and will constantly hunt for food and protect them from predators.
Unfortunately unfortunately, the Glaucous Macaw has been extirpated from its entire previous range. The disappearance of this magnificent bird is likely to be due to trapping that continues for the pet industry, as well as disturbance of habitat, specifically the mass clearing of palm yatays which may have been its primary food source. The Glaucous Macaw is listed as Critically Endangered.
Breeding
Glaucous macaws typically form long-term monogamous couples with both parents taking an active role in the raising of the young. They breed during the dry season, which is when food is most abundant. The female lays two to three eggs which are incubated by the mother for approximately 28 days. For the first few weeks after hatching, the chicks are fed by their parents via regurgitation. The young macaws then begin to explore and learn to feed themselves. They also learn how to fly and forage.
Like all birds, glaucous macaws are social animals. They are active during the day, but sleep at night. They will often seek shelter in tree cavities or other nesting spots to sleep. Their calls can be heard in the forest throughout the day.
While it is hoped that the species will be able to recover from its decline in the wild, the bird faces numerous threats, such as the loss of habitat and illegal trapping for pet trade and deforestation. It is believed that there are less than 20 glaucous macaws living in the wild. The IUCN has classified the bird as "Critically endangered--possibly extinct."
The glaucous severe macaw is called the Lear's macaw, or the Lolita blue & gold macaw-throated hummingbird, and is distinguished by its vivid blue feathers. It is a large bird, measuring 70 centimeters long, and has a strong beak that can break open tough nuts and seeds. This gorgeous bird is native to South America and can be found in a variety of habitats, including grasslands, lowland forests and wetlands.
This majestic bird is a symbol of South American biodiversity. Its elegant appearance is reflected with its slim body, vibrant blue feathers, and lightweight build. The black and curly beak allows it to break open seeds and nuts which make up a significant part of its diet. It's a stunning bird, and it's often seen in bird shows. It is also popular in captivity where it can live for a lifetime.
