The word "Macaw" is thought to derive from the Arawak indian name for them. There are sixteen species of macaw living in the world today. The biggest macaws, (Hyacinth) have a wingspan of around four feet (1200mm). The smallest (Hahn's) have a wingspan of fifteen inches (400mm). All are strong flyers. There have been parrots around for at least thirty million years! Macaws all live in the tropical parts of South and Central America, however only some of them live in rainforests. Macaws are most active in the morning and late afternoon. In the middle of the day when it's very hot, they find a shady spot to hide under. Macaws can live for as long as people do (for seventy years in captivity). They love seeds and fruit.
