Melody Blue Spix Macaw

After a long time of worry and speculation, Brazilian and German conservationists were able to reintroduce two couples back into their natural habitat. Their story is inspiring but also rife with backbiting and jealousy.

The first hurdle was obtaining enough birds to exchange. The macaws were monogamous so it was essential to match pairs well.

Range

A South African couple has taken on the task of saving the critically endangered Spix's hythian macaw for sale. This bird was declared extinct by the United Nations in 2000 due to decades of habitat destruction and poaching. They have a few of the birds that are in captivity and hope to release them near Curaca. They call the birds little blue friends, and compare their lives to that of Presley the only known Spix's Macaw in wild. They describe him as a true survivor, who lost his family but remained loyal to his area. They consider their lives in the Caatinga as similar to his and feel a deep connection with him.

The discovery of the last Spix's Macaw offered a valuable opportunity for researchers to examine its behavior in the wild and gain an understanding of why this species survived this long. Researchers were able to estimate the historical population of this rare bird more precisely. Researchers were able to collect crucial information on the bird's daily movements and its seasonal adaptation to drought, and its feeding habits. Researchers even monitored attempts to reproduce using an Illiger's and a Spix's hybrid macaw purchase couple which was a crucial step in the recovery of this species.

It was a remarkable accomplishment that this bird was able to survive and thrive in the wild with such the smallest gene pool and it has helped scientists to understand how these birds could be reintroduced to the wild. The survival of the last bird encouraged people to take action to save other species of endangered parrots. Zoos have also been enticed to establish their own captive breeding programs for these exotic species of birds.

This working group is an illustration of how conservation groups as well as other organizations and individuals can collaborate to save endangered wildlife and animals. It brings Brazilian officials from the government as well as representatives from zoos as well as international owners of this rare bird, and ornithologists with a common goal: the recovery of the Spix's macaw.

The group has completed a lot of work, including preparing an idea for reintroducing this bird into the wild. The group also raised funds for community outreach as well as field research and captive-bred birds for the project. It also has established a permanent committee for the recovery of the bird.

Habitat

Ten years ago the Spix's Macaw (Cyanopsitta Spixii) was believed to be extinct. It was threatened due to habitat destruction and illegal poaching. Aviculturists, ornithologists and other experts continue to fight to bring this iconic bird back from the brink of extinction.

A well-known animated film and two sequels have made Spix's macaw famous to millions of people worldwide However, this is only the beginning of the iceberg in the long road to bring these birds back from the brink. A multi-national team has been working for decades to breed and reintroduce Spix's Macaws that were raised in captivity into the wild.

The Spix's Macaw is an indigenous species to a small region of northeast Brazil called the Caatinga. This dry region is characterized by flat savannah scrubland that is interspersed with galleries and streams that flow through the season. The first time it was described was in 1819, and is one of the smallest known Neotropical parrots, with only occasional sightings in the wild and a few birds that are kept in captivity and some museum specimens.

To protect the population that is declining, an international committee was created that brought together aviculturists that were the last to hold the birds as well as officials from the government. This group formed a collaboration with the world-renowned non profit organization Al Wabra Wildlife Preservation of Qatar to develop a program to reintroduce Spix's Macaws in their native environment.

AWWP has acquired and is recovering 2,380 hectares of Caatinga close to Curaca (Brazil) of prime habitat. AWWP also breeds and raises birds that will be released into the wild. This will give an animal that is genetically pure for the future generations.

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

A local community was recruited as part of the field team to assist identify Spix's Macaws. The community was provided with watches that would be activated if Spix's Macaws are detected. This allowed them to monitor the birds in the wild as well as their daily movements. This approach has been very successful.

Diet

The Spix's Ziggy Our Scarlet Macaw is the only species of the Genus Cyanopsitta. It was declared extinct in the wild in 2019 by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature after the last wild parrot to be identified disappeared in the year 2000. subsequent surveys failed to find any additional birds. However, a reintroduction program is currently in progress to return the critically endangered bird to its natural habitat in the Caatinga.

This dry forest is a part of northeast Brazil which covers around 10 percent of the country. Spix's Macaws nestled in the hollows of the old caraibeira trees and were known to eat seeds and nuts.

Reintroduction of the Spix's Macaw into the wild is currently in progress. Eight Spix's Macaws that were raised in captivity were released in the wild in June. Twelve more birds are expected to be released in 2022. They will be joined by a group Blue-winged Macaws who were reintroduced. They will provide information on food sources, nesting and roosting locations.

The reintroduction program has collected valuable data from biology on the behavior of this unique bird, including details on the patterns of movement throughout the day and adjustments to drought during the season. It also provided a glimpse into the evolution of the Macaws of Spix, which helps to understand the factors that led to their disappearance.

Spix's Macaws consume the seeds, nuts, and fruits of many plants that are native to the Caatinga Biome. This includes the pinhao-bravo (Jatropha mollissima) and linhas Brasil (Senegalia tenuifolia), along with the joazeiro (Ziziphus Joazeiro) and facheiro Cactus (Pilosocereus pachycladus). They can also eat the fruit of palms of acai (Acaia oliva) or mofumbo (Combretum leprosum).

Spix's Macaws as with all parrots and other bird species, are social birds that form close bonds with their parents. They are vocal and often mimic sounds and speech. They have a mating cry known as "whichaka," described as an extremely short and repetitive sound similar to an acoustic note. When they are in a breeding mode they can fly fast and high.

Breeding

Spix's Macaws are extremely intelligent and social birds. They communicate with one another through a range of squawking and screeching sounds. Like many other parrots, can mimic human speech. They also follow a very strict daily routine, from flight paths to bathing habits, and they can recognize members of their flock. This is what makes them such popular pets and targets for the illegal bird trade.

In the early 1980s, only three Spix's macaws were left in the wild. They were all poached. In 1995, poachers killed both male and female birds as part of an attempt to pair them. Since since then, all Spix's Macaws known have been captive-bred – mostly in Brazil.

The Spix's Macaws that are in captivity are a mix of birds, and are the descendant of only two individuals. This leaves them vulnerable to illnesses and other environmental threats. The majority of the birds that are in captivity are kept in a breeding center in Germany however, this year an agreement between the German conservation center and the Brazilian government expired without renewal and causing doubt about future plans to return the birds and return them back into the wild.

Despite their petty numbers of captive-bred Spix's macaws, captive-bred species show some signs of improvement. This was evident when a Swiss breeder beat out a sheikh in Qatar to purchase from a collector three Spix's Macaws that weren't part of the breeding program.

As a result of this and other efforts, the captive-bred birds are beginning to reproduce, but not at a great rate. Reintroducing the birds to the wild will require that they stay healthy and produce. It is essential to choose the right birds prior to releasing them. Macaws must be in a reproductive stage, and they should be joined by an older sibling or close relatives.

image-removebg-preview-2-150x150.pngThe return of the Spix's macaw parrot cost to the wild may prove difficult, but it's crucial to try. ABC and its partners have developed a reserve system to protect the last remaining habitats of this species. The eight recently released Spix's macaws are going to be joined by blue-winged macaws, that are more common in the Caatinga and share areas with the Spix's macaws. These smart birds will help the macaws become more used to the region and will offer safety in numbers.
