Melody Blue Spix Macaw

After a long period uncertainty and worry, Brazilian and German conservationists were able to reintroduce a group of couples into their natural habitat. Their story is inspiring however, it is also filled with jealousies and backbiting.

The first obstacle was obtaining enough birds to trade. The macaws are monogamous so the pairs needed to be matched properly.

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 small number of the birds kept in captive, and hope to release them into the wild near Curaca. They call them their little Lolita blue & gold macaw companions and compared their journey to the story of Presley, the last known Spix's Fiona hyacinth macaw bird for sale in the wild. They say he was as a true survivor, who lost his family, but kept his faith in the region. They see their lives in the Caatinga as being similar to his, and feel a deep connection with him.

A.jpgResearchers were able to research the behavior of the Spix's Macaw in the wild, and better understand how this species has survived so long. Researchers were able to estimate the historical population of this unique bird with greater accuracy. Researchers were able gather crucial information on the bird's daily movements and seasonal adaptation to drought, and food habits. They also monitored attempts to reproduce using a hybrid Spix's and Illiger's macaw pair, which was an important step in the rehabilitation of this species.

image-removebg-preview-2-150x150.pngIt was a remarkable feat that this bird lived and thrived in the wild despite having a very small gene pool. This has helped scientists understand how these birds can be restored to nature. The survival of the bird that was killed motivated people to act to save other parrots as well as endangered species. It also inspired zoos and other organizations to set up up their own captive breeding programs for these exotic birds.

This working group is an illustration of how conservation groups, other organizations and individuals can collaborate in order to conserve endangered species of wildlife and animals. The group is comprised of Brazilian government officials, zoo reps, international owners of the Spix's macaw and ornithologists, with an aim in common that is the recovery of this rare bird.

The group has accomplished a lot of work, including developing an idea for reintroducing this bird into the wild. The group has also been working to raise funds for field research and community outreach as well as captive-breeding birds to support the reintroduction program. It has also created an ongoing committee to help recover the bird.

Habitat

Threatened by habitat destruction and poaching, the Spix's macaw (Cyanopsitta spixii) was thought to be extinct in the wild 10 years ago. Aviculturists, ornithologists, and other experts continue to fight to bring this iconic bird back from the brink of extinction.

The Spix's Macaw is known to millions around the world due to a well-known animated film and two sequels. This is just the beginning on the long road of returning these birds. An international team has worked for decades to breed and reintroduce Spix's Macaws raised in captivity to the wild.

The Spix's macaw is native to a small portion of northeast Brazil which is known as the Caatinga an arid area of flat savannah scrubland scattered with creeks that flow through the seasons and gallery forests. It was first described in 1819 and is among of the smallest known Neotropical parrots, despite only sporadic sightings from the wild, a few captive birds and a few museum specimens.

To protect the population that is declining, an international committee was established which brought together aviculturists who held the last remaining 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 an initiative to reintroduce the Spix's Macaws in their native habitat.

AWWP has acquired and is restoring 2,380 hectares in the Caatinga near Curaca (Brazil) of the most pristine habitat. AWWP is also breeding and rearing birds that will be released into the wild, providing the genetically pure source of animals for future generations.

In the wild, Spix's Macaws will live in trees and are seldom seen on the ground. They build nests in hollows or holes and search to find seeds, fruits, nuts, and other plants. They can spend as much as 1/3 of their time in the nest.

To assist in tracking the Spix's macaws as well as their movements, a local community was invited to join the field team. The community was provided with watches that would turn on when Spix's Macaws are detected. This allowed them to track the birds in the wild as well as their daily actions. This method has proven to be successful.

Diet

The Spix's hyacinth macaw parrots for sale is the only species belonging to the genus Cyanopsitta. It was listed as extinct in the wild in the year 2019 by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature following the disappearance of the last known wild parrot disappeared in 2000. subsequent surveys did not find any additional birds. A reintroduction program is currently underway to try to bring back this critically endangered bird to its natural habitat in the Caatinga.

This region in northeast Brazil is home to about 10% of the country. Spix's Macaws were a nesting species in the hollows of the old caraibeira trees and were known to feed on nuts and seeds.

A reintroduction program is now underway to re-establish a wild population of the Spix's Macaw. Eight captive-raised Spix's macaws were released into the wild in June. Twelve more birds are scheduled to be released in 2022. They will be joined by a group of Lolita blue & gold macaw-winged Macaws, which have been released back into the same area, and will help to share knowledge of food sources and nesting and roosting locations.

The reintroduction programme has already collected valuable biological data about the behavior of this bird, including information about daily movement patterns and adjustments to drought. It also has provided a glimpse into the natural history of the Spix's Macaws. This aids in understanding the causes that led to their disappearance.

Spix's Macaws consume the seeds, nuts, and fruits of a variety of plants native to the Caatinga Biome. Pinhao-bravo and linhas Brasil, as well as facheiro (Pilosocereus Pachycladus) are all part of this diet. The acai palm (Acaia olive) and mofumbo (Combretum léprosum) fruits are also edible.

Spix's Macaws as with all parrots and other bird species are social birds and form close bonds with their parents. They are extremely vocal and often imitate human speech and other sounds. They have a mating call called "whichaka," described as a short and repetitive grating sound that resembles a flutist note. When they are in breeding mode they can fly high and fast.

Breeding

Spix's Macaws are extremely intelligent and social birds. They communicate with each other by making a variety of screeching and squawking sounds, and like many other parrots, can mimic human speech. They also have a strict routine for their day, from the flight path to bathing habits, and they can recognize the members of their flock. This is what makes them the most sought-after pets, and also a target for the illegal bird trade.

In the early 1980s, just three Spix's macaws remained in the wild. They were all poached. In 1995, poachers killed both male and female birds as part of a plan to pair them. Since then all known Spix's macaws have been bred in captivity, mostly in Brazil.

The few Spix's macaws that are in captivity are a mix of individuals who are descendants of only two individuals, which makes them susceptible to illness and other environmental challenges. The majority of the birds that are in captivity are housed at a breeding center in Germany, but this year an agreement between the German conservation center and the Brazilian government was not renewed and causing doubt about future plans to return the birds and reintroduce them back into the wild.

Despite their low numbers the captive-bred Spix's macaws exhibit some signs of improvement. This was evident when a Swiss breeder was able to beat out a sheikh in Qatar to purchase from the collector three Spix's macaws which were not part of the breeding program.

In part due to this and other efforts, the captive-bred bird population is beginning to grow, though not at a rapid rate. Keeping them healthy and producing will be important to reintroducing the birds into the wild. Selecting the right birds for release is also crucial. Macaws should be reproductive and be paired with close relatives or siblings.

The return of the Spix's Macaw to the wild could be difficult, but it is crucial to try. ABC and its partners have established a reserve system to protect the last remaining habitats of this species. The eight recently released Spix's macaws will be joined by blue-winged macaws which are more common in the Caatinga and share areas with the Spix's macaws. These birds will help macaws adjust to their new surroundings. They will also provide safety by large numbers.
