Red-and-green macaw        Images © Mark A. Chappell

Several large macaws are found in the Neotropics.   They are spectacular, noisy birds, but are often hard to photograph.   These were near a 'clay lick' on the Manu River in southeastern Peru; the light was terrible and these are the best of many images.
