Northern blue macaw (SciiFii)

The northern blue macaw (Anodorhynchus americanum), also known as the spirit macaw, is a species of large macaw that originally did not exist, but has been since created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, swamps, forests, open woodlands, shrublands, and scrublands throughout the United States and Mexico to help boost biodiversity. The northern blue macaw is one of the largest "natural" macaws and among the largest parrots capable of long-distance flying, growing to be about the size of a similarly-looking hyacinth macaw (Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus). Its feathers are entirely dark blue, lighter above. However, the neck feathers can sometimes be slightly grey. The ring around the parrots eyes and area just underneath the beak are a dark yellow. The northern blue macaw is entirely herbivorous and primarily feeds on nuts, fruits, seeds, flowers, nectar, and, occasionally, cacti flesh (in more arid reigons). Northern blue macaws make very loud, high and sometimes low-pitched, throaty squawks, squeaks and yells designed to carry many kilometers to call for their groups. Like other macaws, they are known to mimic human speech if they're raised in captivity. The northern blue macaw can live up to 75 or even 90 years in captivity, although a more typical lifespan is 40 to 50 years. The conservation status of the northern blue macaw is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the northern blue macaw's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
