This beautiful Macaw may be seen at the lovely Tropical Gardens of Maui ~ near Wahinepe’e and Keopuka Ridge in Puohokamoa Valley / Maui Hawai’i Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / All Rights Reserved Featured Art Inspired Art 05 June 2009 / Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi “Macaws are large colourful New World parrots, classified into six of the many Psittacidae genera: Ara, Anodorhynchus, Cyanopsitta, Propyrrhura, Orthopsittaca, and Diopsittaca. They are the largest birds in the parrot family in length and wingspan, though the flightless Kakapo is heavier. Parrots are zygodactyl, like woodpeckers, having 4 toes on each foot – two front and two back. Their native habitats are the forests, especially rain forests, of Mexico and Central and South America. They are called Guacamayos in Spanish and Araras in Portuguese. The majority of macaws are now endangered in the wild. Five species are already extinct, and Spix’s Macaw is now considered to be extinct in the wild. The Glaucous Macaw is also probably extinct, with only two reliable records of sightings in the 20th century. The greatest problems threatening the macaw population are the rapid rate of deforestation and the illegal trapping of birds for the bird trade. Macaws have been said to live for up to 100 years; however, an average of 50 years is probably more accurate. The larger macaws may live up to 65 years. Macaws are ready to breed when they are about 7 or 8 years old. The decision to have a Macaw as a pet should be seen as a life-long commitment, as it will likely be a companion for life and many even outlive its human keeper. They are monogamous and mate for life. In captivity unmated Macaws will bond primarily with one person – their keeper. Pet Macaws thrive on frequent interaction, handling and love just as humans do. Lack of this can lead to their mental and physical suffering. Other sub-bondings also take place and most Macaws that are subjected to non-aggressive behavior will trust most humans and can be handled even by strangers if someone familiar is also alongside. Without proper adult supervision, Macaws are unsuitable as pets for children. All species of Macaws have very powerful, large beaks and are capable of causing considerable harm to both children and adults. They are delicate creatures and require respectful and loving husbandry from handlers.” Information Source avianweb.com macaws info

The subway at the WTC in New York was less than busy at the time I took the shot. The man by the pillar immediately caught my attention. James Dean-esque, maybe? I love black and white photos, so I had a go myself. I hope you enjoy it! The photo was taken in July 2006.
