A Birthday Card featuring a Green winged macaw with text ‘Happy Birthday – Wanna Hang Out?’

The Green-winged Macaw, (Latin name Ara chloropterus), is a large and striking species of macaw found in the tropical rainforests of Central and South America.

They are known for their vibrant plumage, with predominantly red feathers on their body, with green wings and a long tail. Their upper wings are mostly green, while the underwing coverts are blue and the flight feathers are black. They have a large and strong beak, strong legs, and white facial skin with distinct feather patterns.

That strong beak that allows them to crack open hard nuts and seeds. That said, they had a varied diet consists of fruits, seeds, nuts, berries, and vegetation.

A Monogamous Bird

Green-winged Macaws form lifelong monogamous pairs and often engage in elaborate courtship rituals. The female typically lays two to three eggs in a tree cavity or nest hole, and both parents take turns incubating the eggs for about a month. The chicks fledge and become independent after about three to four months.

Green-winged Macaws can live up to 30-40 years. However, in captivity, where they receive proper care and nutrition, they have been known to live even longer, reaching ages of 60 years or more.
