Scarlet macaw for day 2 of ComplicatedKnots' 7 Days of Crochet!

Here’s a gift I painted for someone who loves to knit - a scarlet macaw sharing his colors with a white umbrella cockatoo.  This tiny (6 x 3 1/4 inches) watercolor and gouache painting is from the very beginning of 2021....feels like a million years ago lol.

Animal of the Day!

Cuban Macaw (Ara tricolor)

(Painting by Jacques Barraband)

Extinction Date- 1864

Habitat- Cuba

Size (Weight/Length)- 50 cm long

Diet- Seeds; Fruits

Cool Facts- The Cuban macaw was widespread throughout Cuba but, unfortunately, little is known about their behavior. They were thought to have nested in hollow trees and live in small flocks. They most likely ate hard seeds, like palm nuts, and tough fruits, crushing them with their beak. Cuban macaws were originally hunted for their feathers and meat by native peoples but when Europeans arrived in the 15th century, they were prized cagebirds. The macaws were captured alive and shipped off to Europe to be sold as a pet. A massive hurricane was the nail in the coffin and the rest of the macaws were wiped out. Scarlet macaws remain as the Cuban macaw’s closest relative. While scarlet macaws are considered least concern, they are still threatened by the pet trade and hunting in a similar manner to the Cuban macaw. Conservation efforts to prevent illegal poaching for both dead and alive macaws is in effect throughout their native range.

Rating- 11/10 (One of the smallest macaws and one of the most brilliantly colored.)

They love each other. They hate each other. They have opposite personalities. They were on rival teams. They have always had red and blue jerseys.

no birds were harmed in the making of this comic. mumbo chased grian around a bit before he remembered that he has no mouth and therefore cannot eat cookies
