Welcome to Project Noah! Beautiful first spotting! I can't wait to see more!
Very beautiful spotting Olivia. Welcome to Project noah. I agree with Maria, a superb first spotting. The information you have given is also very interesting.
That's very nice information, Olivia. In the future, could you please include information like this in the notes so that it becomes part of the spotting? It makes the spotting more interesting. Thanks again.
Thanks, Maria.
Well, they were wild. I took this pic at a Private Reserve where I was working by the time. It's called "Buraco das Araras", it's a big sinkhole and the macaws use the sandstone wall for nesting... there are about 100 macaws there around the breeding season (july to november). I'll add more photos soon...
Beautiful birds - nice first spotting on Noah - welcome to the Project! Could you please tell us something about where you saw them and whether they were wild or captive birds?
