Green wing Macaws are native to Central and South America and build their nests in high trees or cliffs They have been known to live upwards of 50 years in captivity and reach sexual maturity at about 5 years of age.
They are highly responsive to training, and must be given adequate attention and bonding time due to their social natures.

Blue and Gold Macaws are generally seen in pairs but may congregate with others to form flocks of up to 30 birds. Paired birds fly close together with their wings almost touching. They undertake conspicuous daily flights from their roosting sites to scattered feeding grounds, but return to the roosting trees just before sunset by flying high above the forest canopy.
