Any parrot of the genus Sittace, or Macrocercus. About eighteenspecies are known, all of them American. They are large and have avery long tail, a strong hooked bill, and a naked space around theeyes. The voice is harsh, and the colors are brilliant and stronglycontrasted.

[Sarah]

An insanely expensive bird that costs more than most people would pay for a human being. They are loud, messy, and only used as a status symbol. They are often targets of theft, due to their cost and resale value. Many species are endangered and/or smuggled into the United States and should be left wild and free in Central and South America where they belong.

The art of ma, ma, ma, MACAW-ing in front of someones face while flapping your arms prevuiosly and bobbing the head.
