The bird has been observed by aviculturists from various countries, but the latest 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 to South America. This magnificent bird has a unique blue feather pattern and powerful beak that is capable of breaking open hard nuts and seeds. Glaucous macaws form long-term monogamous pairs and both parents assist in raising the chicks. They feed their chicks regurgitated food for the first couple of weeks after birth, and later they begin to eat solid food as they grow. Parents are also responsible for teaching young macaws to fly and hunt.

The glaucous Macaw is extinct, but rumors about its existence persist across the globe. The Glaucous Macaw is believed have gone extinct in the 1800s because of logging and cattle grazing on yatay (Butia) palm groves from which the birds would gather their food. It is believed that the glaucous macaw returned to captivity in the wild, where it is raised alongside its larger relative, Lear's macaw pets.

In terms of habitat, the glaucous macaw can be found in subtropical forests of South America. They are most often found in areas that have plenty of palm trees, and they are believed to be extremely adaptable to a variety of forested habitats. These beautiful birds are territorial and defend the nesting and feeding areas from intruders.

There have been a variety of reports involving the glaucous macaw throughout the years, but most are considered to be unreliable. The most recent report of a wild occurrence involves an friend of Ridgely's that claimed to have observed four Glaucous macaws in Califomia. This is completely untrue until it is verified by hard evidence. Many experts have concluded that the bird is likely to be extinct since there are no records in the last century. However they have been willing accept a remote chance of its survival. If it does survive it is highly unlikely to make it to huge numbers.

Habitat

This species was once widespread however, it is now found in northern Argentina, south Paraguay and north-eastern Uruguay as well as Brazil from Parana state to the south, where it is nestled in cliffs along major rivers.

Although there have been no credible sightings of the species since 1830, the Glaucous Macaw seemed not to be a rare species in its limited range. specimens were collected up to 1860 (in Corrientes). The last known living Glaucous Macaw was displayed at the Buenos Aires Zoo in 1936 and [Redirect-Meta-0] is believed to be from Brazil.

Re-evaluation of the historical records suggests that this species was rather generalist in its preferences for habitat with a preference for the savanna ecosystem, which was interspersed with palm "islands" and areas of riparian forest along rivers. It was buying a macaw specialized for the consumption of palm fruits, especially those of the yatay (or chatay) palm (Butia). However, it also ate ripe and unripe fruits, nuts, berries, and other vegetable matter. It nests on steep slopes on cliffs, in cliffs, and occasionally in tree cavities.

The bird was likely to be gregarious and social, similar to other parrots. It was said that it could live to 14.4 years in captivity, and was a reliable breeder who reproduced year after. In the wild, its lifespan was likely to be between 50 and 80 years. This species was a potent seed disperser and could have contributed to the success of the yatay palm in its natural habitats.

Feeding

Up until recently, very little was known of the feeding habits and diet of the Glaucous macaw. The earliest references to this subject that I have located are two works 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 are about the Hyacinthine macaw for sale near me (Anodorhynchus aureolarius), but I have no reason to believe that they are not applicable to this species.

The Glaucous macaw is believed to be a specialist feeder, consuming mainly palm nuts, but also small amounts of other fruits, seeds and [Redirect Only] vegetable matter. This species' diet was likely influenced by the clearing of forests for agriculture and cattle-ranching by early colonists, and the removal of yatay (Butia) palms from which it derived a lot of its nutrition.

The disappearance of this majestic bird is likely due to the ongoing trapping for the pet trade, as well as disturbance of habitat, especially the massive clearing of yatay palms from which it could have gotten its primary food source. The Glaucous macaw is listed as Critically Endangered.

Breeding

Glaucous macaws typically form long-term monogamous couples and both parents play a role in raising the young. They breed during the dry season when the availability of food is at its highest. Females lay up to three eggs, which are incubated by the mother for approximately 28 days. In the initial few weeks after hatching, the chicks are fed daily by their parents through regurgitation. The young macaws then begin to explore their surroundings and learn how to feed themselves. They are also taught how to fly and forage.

Like all birds, glaucous Macaws are extremely social creatures. They are active during the day but are restful at night. They usually seek shelter in cavities in trees or other suitable nesting places for the night. Their calls can be heard in the forest throughout the day.

Although it is hoped the species will recover from its decline in the wild, the bird is facing numerous threats, such as the loss of habitat, illegal trapping for the pet trade and deforestation. It is believed that there are just 20 glaucous macaws in the wild. The IUCN classifies the bird as "Critically Endangered, possibly extinct."
