CHESTNUT-FRONTED MACAW, BREWER PARK-MILLER DRIVE ROOST,SOUTH MIAMI,FLORIDA,12/19/2020

  We can ID these parrots (we counted 5 of them) as Chestnut-fronted Macaws as follows:

• Large size (15.6" - 19"), where about half the length is the long tail
• Mostly green in color
• Patches of red and blue on wings
• Yellow eye surrounded by bare face
• Bluish crown with darker forehead (this is the chestnut front in the right light)

   The Chestnut-fronted Macaw is found over a large part of Northern South America from Panama south into Amazonian Brazil and central Bolivia.  A feral population has been established in Florida.
   The Chestnut-fronted Macaw is a new species to our Photographic Life List, which now stands at 996.
