The glaucous Macaw can be described as one of the rarest birds in the world. It is in danger of disappearing and could be extinct.
Many aviculturalists have reported sightings of this bird However, the most recent sighting was in 1992. This alleged sighting occurred in the southwestern region of Paraguay close to the city of Corrientes. The bird was male.
Origin
The Glaucous macaw is an endangered parrot species that is native South America. This magnificent bird features a distinctive blue feather pattern and a powerful beak that is capable of breaking open tough nuts and seeds. Glaucous macaws have been known to form long-term monogamous families and both parents assist in raising the chicks. They feed the chicks regurgitated food for the first couple of weeks after birth, and then they begin eating solid food as they grow. Parents are also responsible for teaching the young macaws to fly and hunt.
The glaucous Macaw has gone extinct, but rumors about its existence persist around the world. The glaucous Macaw is believed to be extinct by the 1800s because of cattle grazing on yatay (Butia) palm groves, where the birds gathered their food. The glaucous Macaw is believed to have returned, and is usually kept with its larger relative, Lear’s macaw.
In terms of habitat, the glaucous macaw can be found in subtropical forests of South America. They are usually found in areas that have plenty of palm trees, and are known to be highly adaptable to a variety of forested habitats. These beautiful birds are territorial and will defend the nesting and feeding area from intruders.
There have been a number of reports involving the glaucous Paisley hyacinth macaw for sale through the years, but they are considered to be unreliable. The most recent report of a wild event is a friend of Ridgely's who claimed to have seen four Glaucous macaws in Califomia. This is a ridiculous claim until it is substantiated with evidence. Many experts have concluded that this bird is likely extinct because there are no evidence of it in the last century. However they have been willing accept a remote chance of its survival. If it survives it is highly unlikely to reach large numbers.
Habitat
The glaucous macaw is a striking bird, renowned for its size and striking turquoise-blue coloring. The tail and wings are long, which enhances its fluid and graceful movement. The bird is an emblem of loyalty and love. Its beak is mostly black and has a distinctive shape that allows it to break open seeds and nuts which comprise a large portion of its diet.
The Glaucous Macaw is considered Critically Endangered by the IUCN, which notes that it has a small population and is at high risk of extinction. The species was once widespread but is now found in northern Argentina and south Paraguay and north-eastern Uruguay, as well as Brazil, from Parana state to south, where it nests in cliffs that run alongside major rivers.
Although there haven't been any reliable sightings of this species since 1830 The Glaucous Macaw seemed not to be extremely rare within its comparatively small range; specimens were collected from 1830 to 1850 (in Corrientes). The last known living Glaucous Buffy macaw bird for sale was displayed at the Buenos Aires Zoo in 1936 and is believed to be from Brazil.
A re-examination of the historical records suggests that this species was very generalist in its habitat preferences and preferred savanna habitat intermingled with palm "islands" and bands of riparian forest along rivers. It was a specialist for the consumption of palm fruits especially those of the yatay (or chatay) palm (Butia). However, it also ate ripe and unripe fruits and berries, nuts, and other vegetable matter. It is a nesting place on steep slopes on cliffs, in cliffs, and occasionally in tree cavities.
The bird was likely to be gregarious and social, just like other parrots. It was believed that it could live for up to 14.4 years in captivity, and was a reliable breeder that reproduced year after. Its life expectancy in the wild was perhaps about 50 to 80 years. This species was a potent disperser of seeds and may have contributed towards the success of the palm yatay species in its natural habitats.
Feeding
The Glaucous Macaw (Anodorhynchus glaucus) is among the most magnificent of all the species of parrots, and its presence commands an enormous impact on its surroundings. This huge South American parrot is known for its vibrant blue feathers, bright yellow eyes and the teardrop-shaped lappet on the lower part its beak.
Until recently very little was known about the diet of the Glaucous Macaw. The earliest detailed references I have found are in two publications by H.W. Bates, "The Naturalist on the Amazons" first published in 1863 on his 11-year stay in Brazil and later in his book "As Birds of the Brazilian Forests". Both of these references to the Hyacinthine Macaw (Anodorhynchus aureolarius) However, I have no reason to believe that they are not applicable to this species.
It is probable that the Glaucous Macaw was a particular feeder of palm nuts and also consumed other seeds, fruits and vegetable matter in small quantities. The diet of this species was likely influenced by the clearing of forests to cultivate cattle and the cattle-ranching practices of early colonists, and the removal of yatay (Butia) palms from which it got a large portion of its nutritional value.
In the wild the Glaucous Macaw was found in subtropical forests that had cliffs and savannahs with palm trees, where it nested in tree cavities and on rocky banks or in the palm fronds' top. Females incubate and lay two eggs on average.
The young Glaucous Macaws are altricial, which means they depend on their parents to care for them until they're fully grown and fly. Both females and males are extremely dedicated to their offspring and will tirelessly hunt for food and protect them from predators.
Unfortunately unfortunately, the Glaucous Macaw has been extirpated from most of its former range. The disappearance of this magnificent bird is likely due to the continued trapping of birds for the pet industry, as well as disturbance to habitat, particularly the mass removal of palm yatays that could have been their primary food source. The Glaucous Macaw is listed as Critically Endangered.
Breeding
Glaucous macaws are typically monogamous pairs with both parents taking an active role in the raising of the young. They breed during the dry season, which is when food is most abundant.

The macaws' young begin to explore their surroundings and learn to eat themselves. They also learn how to fly and hunt for food.
Like all birds, glaucous macaws are social animals. They are active during the day but are restful at night. They often seek refuge in tree cavities or other suitable nesting places to sleep. They are very vocal and their calls can be heard throughout the forest during the day.
The species is expected to rebound from the decline, but it is in danger of being wiped out by habitat loss and illegal trapping of the bird to sell on the pet market and deforestation.
