Hyacinth Macaws or Blue Parrots


Hyacinth Macaws

Hyacinth Macaws or Blue Parrots are the largest of the Macaw species are are about 40 inches in length from beak to tail. They are entirely of blue shade except for patches of bright yellow around the eyes and beak.

Because of their size the blue parrots are also known as 'gentle giants' as despite their intimidating beaks they are by nature friendly.

I had seen a lot of these birds in the Jurong bird park in Singapore. They are so colourful and lovely.
