Spixis macaw
Cyanopsitta spixii
The blue macaw is a small bird with bright blue plumage. This parrot lives only in Brazil and is now almost extinct in the wild.
The blue macaw differs from other macaws in its completely blue color and small size. It is important for nature because it disperses plant seeds and helps the forest regenerate.
