"The hyacinth macaw (Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus), or hyacinthine macaw, is a parrot native to central and eastern South America. With a length (from the top of its head to the tip of its long pointed tail) of about one meter it is longer than any other species of parrot. It is the largest macaw and the largest flying parrot species; the flightless kākāpō of New Zealand outweighs it at up to 3.5 kg." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyacinth_macaw Sunday Challenge: Square format I used Photoshop Elements to replace the blown out white sky with a more interesting one.
