Macaws,

are devoted,

human observers.

They find humans endlessly fascinating,

especially when they want a treat.

But even wild parrots like to people watch!
Cheers to you from the curious Macaws~

Wow! This was such an amazing Macaws . So photogenic. 😁
They are such gorgeous creatures 🦜
Amazing photos, Cindy, and love the captions.
So appreciated and I am glad you do! Thank you & cheers დ
Too cute when he raised his foot for you to take a picture. Great shots, as always.
He was clearly waving at the camera. What a ham! 😉
Intelligent birds. And beautiful.
Yes. I agree completely 🦜
What glorious birds – that blue color knocks me out!
These blues make you happy! 🦜
Wow! I love parrots, beautiful and smart! Thank’s for share, Cindy.
Have a lovely day!

I love them too. Fascinating creatures and you are right, they are so smart! 🦜
Thank you very much, Cindy.
Exactly fascinating! 🦜🙏
You are most welcome.
You are so kind.
<3
❤️🙏
Stunning colours. Beautiful ❤️
Grazie mille! 🦜
They are great birds, but not as talkative as Greys ad Yellow Heads.
Very true. I do admit, I sometimes appreciate the absence of human conversation!! 😉
Wow, these photos are sooo beautiful, Cindy! Great work. 🤩
Thanks much John & cheers my friend 🦜
They are so, so gorgeous (as well as smart). Such beauty.
That’s interesting, Cindy. I’ve never thought of birds being people watchers, but I suppose that is the case. These macaws do look curious – love the pictures!
Thanks & happy you enjoyed. Birds are avid people watchers!! 😉
Not only that, the first photo made me hold my breath for a second or two: it really felt like the macaw was staring at ME! Where did you have the chance to take these spectacular photos?
The interesting thing is that all sorts of animals, mostly wild, stare directly into my camera lens. I don’t use a tripod ever. I stand still with the camera lens stuck to my face on full zoom. Even wild grizzlies stare into the lens. Birds are fascinated by it. So you are totally correct, this incredible bird was staring directly at you! In that he was staring into the camera lens, which both you and I see equally. How cool is that! 🦜
Beautiful birds Cindy! I still lean towards my Raven friends for smarts.
Ravens are amazingly smart 🦜
Birds are far smarter than what most people are aware of.
It’s the ability to use tools that sets them apart!
Very true Wayne, thanks დ
That ultramarine and yellow. They are extraordinary pretty. And so are your pictures!
So thoughtful and so appreciated Peter. Thank you 🦜
Oh wow, that blue! Gorgeous closeups, Cindy. 😍
Happy you enjoyed Michele & thank you 🦜

You made me smile 🦜
Such unique and beautiful birds.
Yes, exactly. Thank you 🦜
The colors are amazing, as are the photographs and the fantastic parrots.
I love you Gigi. Stay safe my friend 🦜🦜

So kind, and so appreciated, thank you & cheers დ
Such fabulous colours – they do look as if they’re people watching.
Birds are avid people watchers! დ
I hadn’t appreciated that Cindy, thank you
დდდ
They are so smart it’s not funny! It’s like having a child.
I believe it completely. Very intelligent creatures დ
Macaws always come over as incredibly nosy, and you’ve captured that beautifully.
Smiling. They are nosy birds in more ways than one! 😉
So beautiful.
Grazie mille Carolyn დ
I find them fascinating too…such incredible colours. Amazing images, Cindy.
So happy you enjoyed Cathy & cheers დ
This is revesible…. we are as equally interested in them.. 🙂
So true! Stay safe and well my friend დ
Wow, the colours!
Aren’t they ethereal! დ
Such beautiful birds Cindy, and may they stay that way dear lady. It would be a poorer world if we lost them 😀❤️🙏🏽
I so agree with you Maek. These gorgeous creatures are already seriously endangered in the wild დ
they are beautiful and I’m sure we are endlessly odd to watch )
I would definitely agree with the ‘odd’ part! 😉 😉
Such beautiful plummage!
Aren’t they stunning! Stay safe & well Liz დ
They sure are!
დდდ
Breathtaking Blue and Red colours. WOW!
Aren’t they gorgeous creatures! დ
Absolutely wonderful birds.. who’s a pretty boy then 😁🦜💕
Smiling…. That’s like my grandsons saying to me, “We’re cute!” (Because everyone says this to them.) Then they ask, “What is cute?” 😉 😉
🙂 Our Grandchildren are just the cutest lol.. 🙂
Just like all children everywhere, pure perfection დდდ
Totally agree 💖💕💖
my son had a macaw for over 20 years.. they become family.. waves good morning across the miles.
How wonderful for your son! Waving back at you my friend დ
The Nature made them unreally colourful. They are looking like an artist painted them!!!
The finest artist of them all! დ
Gorgeous captures. I love how the macaws look like they are posing for the camera.
They are natural models! 😉
Beautiful birds and images! They can watch me all they want! 😋
We are birds of a feather Brad! 😉
🙂
Those macaws are beautiful. They do look like they are focused on getting a treat…or two.
Definitely the tame hyacinth was expecting something!! დ
Wow, I love the colours, so beautiful, great pictures Cindy!
Very pleased you enjoyed & thanks for letting me know დ
Blue is my favorite color, Cindy – next to green!
Ok. Now blue is really my favorite color.
Brilliant!
Smiling…. Hyacinth blue to be precise! 😉
Stunning close-ups, Cindy. Their colors are gorgeous. I’ve seen them wild in Costa Rica and it is a thrill.
Yes it is a thrill. I have seen them there too დ
Beautiful girl in blue
Dressed in indigo dreams დ
That’s lovely…

Macaws are stunning beauties!
They are incredible დ
Again, I am reminded that we may not be the most advanced creatures on this planet!!
Definitely not the wisest! I concur completely Rebecca დ
Wow, they have such brilliant colors! Beautiful pictures!
Merci beaucoup mon Ami Jessica დ
Great portraits of the people watchers!
Thank you Peter & cheers my friend დ
They are so beautiful! Must be amazing to see them in the wild. I’ve only seen captive bred ones.
It is thrilling to find them in the wild. I have seen them in several different countries, but never the hyacinths. They are extremely endangered დ
