Oh Paige, that is just too cool! Aren't African Grays just fantastic?
I have also had the pleasure of handling several kinds of macaws up to a
hyacinth macaw, the largest parrot in the world. He felt incredibly heavy on
my arm, especially since I was used to little Astro sitting on my finger (Oh
my...heart string tug).
One thing I don't understand is that the number of hyacinth macaws in the
wild is very low. I don't see why there can't be a captive breeding program
like there is for California Condors. Maybe there is though, and I just
haven't heard about it.
