Hyacinth macaw is a cobalt-blue giant parrot. A characteristic feature of the macaw species is the bright yellow color around the eyes, on the soles of the feet, and on the corner of the beak. This is one of the most attractive parrots in the macaw family and they are certainly the largest. It is the largest flying parrot of all parrots.

For most of us, endangered animals are a far-away mystery. British photographer Tim Flach, however, has spent the last two years braving their habitats and documenting the rare animals' fragile existences. The resulting body of work, Endangered, provides us with an intimate and rare view into the beautiful lives of Earth's most threatened species and reminds us of everything we should be afraid to lose.

The “Blue Macaw, Hyacinth macaw” is an original parrot (Central and Eastern South America). With a height of 100 cm, it is considered the longest than any other species of parrot. #parrot #macaw #hyacinth #anodorhynchus #hyacinthinus #bir #pet #animals #bleumacaw
