Description
I shot these two lovely, colorful parrots in a Toronto Exposure show. These two parrots have been partners for 22 years and they are so playful and fun to take lots of pictures.
The military macaw is 70.5 cm (27.8 in) long on average, 99 -110 (33 - 43 in) across the wings and weighs 900 - 1,100 grams (2 - 2.4 lbs). It is mostly green in color with the head a slightly paler shade. It bears a red frontal patch, with a white bare facial area barred with narrow black lines. The flight feathers are blue and the red tail bordered with blue. The large strong beak is grey-black and the iris yellow. The military macaw appears superficially similar to, and may easily be confused with the somewhat larger great green macaw.
