Melody Blue Spix Macaw

After a long period of worry and speculation, Brazilian and German conservationists have succeeded in reintroducing couple couples back into their natural habitat. Their story is inspirational but also rife with jealousies and backbiting.

The first obstacle was getting enough birds to exchange. These macaws are monogamous, therefore the pairs had to be well-matched.

Range

A South African couple has taken on the mission of saving the critically endangered Spix's macaw. The bird was declared extinct by United Nations in 2000 due to decades of habitat destruction and poaching. They have a few of the birds in captivity and hope to release them close to Curaca. They refer to the birds as little blue friends, and compare their experience to that of Presley the only known Spix's Macaw in wild. They say he was as a true survivor who lost his family, but remained loyal to the area. They see their lives in the Caatinga as being similar to his and feel a strong affinity with him.

The discovery of the last Spix's Tallula indigo park mollie macaw offered researchers with an opportunity to investigate its behavior in wild and gain a deeper understanding of how this species was able to survive for so long. This also helped them create a more accurate estimate of the historic population numbers of this unique bird. Researchers were able to gather crucial information on the bird's movements throughout the day and its seasonal adaptation to drought, and its feeding habits. They even monitored attempts to reproduce using an Illiger's and Spix's hybrid macaw pair which was a significant step towards the recovery of this species.

It was a remarkable achievement that this bird lived and thrived in the wild despite having a very limited gene pool. This has allowed scientists to better understand how these birds can be restored to the wild. The survival of the last bird also inspired people to take action to save other parrots and threatened species. Zoos have also been enticed to establish their own captive breeding program for these exotic bird species.

This group is a good illustration of how conservation groups, other organizations and individuals can collaborate to protect endangered species of wildlife and animals. It brings Brazilian officials from the government Zoo representatives as well as international owners of this rare bird, and ornithologists to work together towards a common goal - the reintroduction of the Spix's macaw.

The working group has already completed a lot of work, including preparing an idea for reintroducing this bird back into the wild. The group has also been working to raise funds for field research as well as community outreach and captive-breeding birds to support the reintroduction project. The group has also set up a permanent committee for the recovery of the bird.

Habitat

Ten years ago, the Spix's Macaw (Cyanopsitta Spixii) was thought to be extinct. It was endangered by habitat destruction and poaching that was illegal. Today, aviculturists and ornithologists continue to fight tirelessly to bring this iconic bird back from the brink of extinction.

A popular animated movie and two sequels have made the Spix's macaw famous to millions of people around the world However, this is only the beginning of the iceberg in the long journey to save these birds from the edge. For decades, an international team has been working to breed and reintroduce Spix's macaws raised in a captive environment back into the wild.

The Spix's Macaw is a native species to a small region of northeast Brazil called the Caatinga. This arid area is home to flat savannah scrubland, which is surrounded by seasonal streams and gallery forests. It was described in 1819 and is among the smallest known Neotropical Parrots. There are only sporadic sightings in the wild, few birds in captivity and a few museum specimens.

To preserve the declining population, an international group was created. It was comprised of Aviculturists who owned the last remaining bird, as well as government officials. The group formed a collaboration with the world-renowned non-profit organization Al Wabra Wildlife Preservation (AWWP) of Qatar to establish a rigorous program to reintroduce captive-bred Macaws Spix's to their natural habitat in the northeast of Brazil.

AWWP has acquired and is restoring 2,380 acres of prime habitat in Caatinga near Curaca, Brazil. AWWP also breeds and rears birds that will be released into the wild. This will give the genetically pure source of animals for the future generations.

In the wild, Spix's Macaws will live in trees and are rarely seen on the ground. They typically build nests in hollows or holes in trees and hunt for fruit, seeds, nuts and other plants. They will typically spend up to a third of the day in the nest.

To aid in tracking the Spix's macaws as well as their movements, a local community was recruited to join the field team. The community was provided with watches that would turn on when Spix's Macaws are identified. This allowed them to monitor the birds in the wild and their daily activities. This approach has been very successful.

Diet

The Spix's Paisley hyacinth macaw for sale (Cyanopsitta spixii) is the only species in the genus Cyanopsitta. It was declared extinct in the wild in the year 2019 by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature after the last wild parrot disappeared in 2000, and subsequent surveys failed to locate any additional birds. However, a reintroduction project is currently in progress to restore this critically endangered bird back to its natural habitat in the Caatinga.

The northeast region of Brazil comprises about 10% of the country. Spix's Macaws nested in the hollows of the old caraibeira trees, and they were also recognized for their dietary habits of eating seeds and nuts.

Reintroduction of the Spix’s Fiona hyacinth macaw bird for sale into the wild is in progress. Eight Spix's Macaws that were raised in captivity were released into the wild in June. Twelve more birds are scheduled to be released by 2022. They will be joined by Blue-winged Macaws, which have been released back into the same area, and will help to share information about food sources, nesting and roosting areas.

The reintroduction program has obtained valuable biological data on the behavior of the bird, including details about the patterns of movement and adaptations to drought. It also has opened a window on the evolution of the Macaws of Spix, which aids in understanding the causes that led to their extinction.

Spix's Macaws consume the fruits, seeds and nuts of many plants native to the Caatinga biome. Pinhao-bravo, linhas Brazil and facheiro (Pilosocereus Pachycladus) are all included in this diet. The acai palm (Acaia olive) and mofumbo (Combretum léprosum) fruits are also edible.

Like all parrots Like all parrots, Spix's Macaws are social birds that bond closely with their parents. They have vocalizations and often mimic sounds and speech. They make a mating call known as the "whichaka," which is described as a brief, repetitive grating sound similar to a flute note. When they are in breeding mode they can fly high and fast.

Breeding

Spix's macaws are extremely intelligent and highly social birds. They communicate using screeching, squawking and other sounds. Like many parrots they can mimic human speech. They follow a strict routine, which includes flight patterns and bathing habits. They can also recognize other members of their flock. They are popular as pets, and are frequently targeted by the illegal trade in birds because of this.

In the early 1980s, only three Spix's macaws remained in the wild, and all of them being poached. In 1995, poachers killed both male and female birds in an attempt to pair them. Since the time, all known Spix's macaws have been captive-bred mostly in Brazil.

The few Spix's macaws in captivity are made up of individuals who are the descendants of just two individuals, which makes them susceptible to illness and other environmental challenges. The majority of Spix's macaws that are in captivity are kept in an breeding center in Germany. However this year an agreement between a German conservation center and the Brazilian government was canceled which leaves the future plans for repatriation and their reintroduction into the wild in doubt.

Despite their precarious number, captive-bred Spix’s macaws show some signs of improvement. This was evident when the Swiss breeder beat the sheikh of Qatar to purchase three Spix's Macaws for the collector.

In the wake of this and other efforts, captive-bred birds are starting to reproduce again, although not at a rapid rate. Reintroducing them to the wild will require that they remain healthy and produce. It is essential to choose the right birds prior to releasing them. Macaws must be of reproductive age and paired with siblings or close relatives.

It's not easy to bring the Spix's Macaw back to the wild, however, it is essential to try. To help, ABC and partners have started a reserve system that is designed to safeguard the species' last remaining habitats. The eight Spix's macaws will be joined by blue-winged macaws, which are more common in the Caatinga and live in overlapping areas with Spix's macaws. These birds will help the macaws adapt to their new surroundings and will also provide safety by numbers.Aa.jpg
