Melody Blue Spix Macaw

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

The first hurdle was obtaining enough birds to exchange. Macaws are monogamous, so it was important to match pairs well.

Range

A South African couple is working to save the critically endangered Spix's macaw cage, which was declared extinct in 2000, following decades of poaching and loss of habitat. They have a small number of the birds in captivity and hope to release them close to Curaca. They call them their little blue companions and compared their journey to the story of Presley, the last known Spix's Macaw in the wild. They describe Presley as a true survivor who lost his family, but kept his faith in his region. They feel a strong kinship to him and view their lives as like his.

Researchers were able study the behavior of the Spix's macaw purchase in the wild, and better understand the reasons why this species has lasted so long. It also allowed them to form a more accurate estimation of the historical population numbers of this unique bird. Researchers were able to gather crucial information on the bird's daily movements, its seasonal adjustment to drought, as well as its eating habits. Researchers also monitored attempts to reproduce using an Illiger's and a Spix's hybrid macaw couple which was a crucial step in the recovery for this species.

It was an amazing achievement that this bird survived and thrived in the wild despite having a very small gene pool. This has enabled scientists to understand how these birds can be reintroduced back to the wild. The survival of the last bird inspired people to take action to save other parrots as well as threatened species. Zoos and other groups to set 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 to save endangered animals and wildlife. This group brings together Brazilian government officials, zoo reps, international owners of the Spix's macaw and ornithologists with one goal in common to save this endangered bird.

The working group has already accomplished a great deal of work, including preparing a plan for reintroducing the bird to the wild. The group also raised funds to fund community outreach, field research and captive-bred birds for the project. The group has also set up a permanent committee for the reintroduction of the bird.

Habitat

At risk due to poaching and habitat destruction The Spix's macaw (Cyanopsitta spixii) was thought to be extinct in the wild ten years ago. Aviculturists, ornithologists, severe macaw and other experts continue to do their best to save this iconic bird from the brink of extinction.

A cult animated film and two sequels have made Spix's Macaw known to millions of people worldwide However, this is only the beginning of the iceberg in the long road to bring these birds back from the brink. For decades, an international team has been working to breed and bring back Spix's macaws raised in a captive environment back into the wild.

The Spix's Macaw is an endemic species that is found in a small area of northeast Brazil called the Caatinga. This arid region is characterized by flat savannah scrubland that is interspersed with galleries and streams that flow through the season. It was described in 1819, and is one of least-known Neotropical Parrots. There are only sporadic glimpses of the wild, with a few captive birds, and a handful of museum specimens.

To protect the population that is declining An international committee was created that gathered aviculturists who had the last remaining birds and government officials. This group formed a collaboration with the world-renowned non profit organization Al Wabra Wildlife Preservation of Qatar to create an initiative to reintroduce the Spix's Macaws back to their natural habitat.

AWWP has purchased and is recovering 2,380 hectares of Caatinga close to Curaca (Brazil) of prime habitat. AWWP is also breeding and rearing birds that will be released into the wild, which will provide a genetically pure source of animals for future generations.

In the wild, Spix's Macaws will live in trees, and are not often seen on the ground. They build nests in hollows or holes and forage for fruits, seeds, nuts, and other plants. They can spend as much as 1/3 of their time in the nest.

To aid in tracking the Spix's macaws as well as their movements local communities were recruited to join the field team. The members of the community were provided watches that could be activated if the Spix's macaw was detected which allowed them to keep on top of the birds' movements and their daily activities in the wild. This approach has proven very successful.

Diet

The Spix's Macaw (Cyanopsitta spixii) is the only species in 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 wild parrot disappeared in 2000. subsequent surveys did not find any additional birds. A reintroduction programme is currently underway to try to restore this critically threatened bird to its native home in the Caatinga.

This dry forest is a region of northeast Brazil which covers around 10 percent of the country. Spix's Macaws nested in the hollows of old caraibeira trees, and they were also recognized for their dietary habits of eating seeds and nuts.

A reintroduction program is now underway to re-establish a wild population of the Spix's Macaw. Eight birds raised in captivity were released into the wild in June, and 12 more are expected to arrive in 2022. They will be joined by Blue-winged Macaws, which were reintroduced into the same area, and will help to share knowledge of food sources, nesting and roosting locations.

The reintroduction program has gathered valuable biological data on the behavior of this unique bird, including information on the patterns of movement throughout the day and adjustments to drought during the season. It has also provided an insight into the nature of the Spix's Macaw and helped to better understand what led to its disappearance in the wild.

Spix's Macaws consume the seeds, fruits, and nuts of a myriad of plants native to the Caatinga Biome. Pinhao-bravo and linhas Brasil, as well as facheiro (Pilosocereus Pachycladus) are all part of this diet. They may also consume the fruit of acai palms (Acaia oliva) or mofumbo (Combretum leprosum).

Spix's Macaws like all parrots and other bird species are social birds that have close relationships with their parents. They are vocal and frequently mimic other sounds and words. They have a mating sound called the "whichaka," which is described as a short, repetitive grating sound like a flute note. When they are in a breeding mode they can fly fast and high.

Breeding

Spix's macaws are incredibly intelligent and highly social birds. They communicate through screeching, squawking and other sounds. Like many parrots, they are able to mimic human speech. They also have a strict daily routine, from the flight path to bathing habits, and they can recognize members of their flock. They are adored as pets, and are frequently targeted by the illegal bird trade because of this.

By the early 1980s, only three Spix's macaws remained in the wild, all of them poached. A plan to pair the male and female foiled in 1995, when poachers killed both birds. Since then, all Spix's Macaws are captive-bred, mostly in Brazil.

The Spix's Macaws in captivity are a mix of birds, and are the descendant of only two individuals. This makes them more vulnerable to illnesses and other environmental issues. The majority of Spix's macaws that are in captivity live at a breeding center in Germany. However, this year an agreement between the German conservation center and the Brazilian government ran out, leaving future plans for repatriation and reintroduction into the wild in doubt.

Despite their precarious number, captive-bred Spix’s macaws show some signs of improvement. This was evident when a Swiss breeder was able to beat a sheikh from Qatar to purchase from the collector three Spix's macaws that were not part of the breeding program.

As a result of this and other efforts, captive-bred birds are beginning to reproduce again, although not at a great rate. In order to keep them healthy and producing, it will be crucial for reintroducing the birds back into the wild. It is essential to choose the right birds before release. Macaws should be reproductively mature and be joined by one of their siblings or a close family member.

Reintroducing the Spix's macaw to the wild may prove difficult, but it is essential to try. To aid, ABC and partners have created a reserve system which aims to protect the species' last remaining habitats. The eight Spix's macaws are going to be joined by blue-winged macaws which are more common in the Caatinga and share areas with the Spix's macaws. These intelligent birds will aid the macaws become more accustomed to the region and provide security in large numbers.d.jpg
