Hyacinth Macaw headshot One of our missions on our trip to Brazil was to find the Hyacinth Macaw, the largest macaw specie in the world. Here we found one in a bird park, luckily later on we also found a few in the wild.

The Hyacinth Macaw

The Hyacinth Macaw is a parrot native to central and eastern South America. With a length of about 100 cm it is longer than any other species of parrot. It is the largest macaw and the largest flying parrot species, though the flightless Kakapo of New Zealand can outweigh it at up to 3.5 kg.
