Scarlet Macaws (Ara macao) - Yasuni National Park, EC

Scarlet Macaws (Ara macao) - Yasuni National Park, EC

            I just returned from an 18 day trip to Ecuador. It was my first time in South America and I loved it. I visited the clay licks at Yasuni National Park in the Amazon. When I got there I watched an extremely poisonous Fer-de-lance Snake capture and eat a Cobalt-winged Parakeet. It took 2.5 hours after the Snake had slowly swallowed the bird and departed for the Parrots to come in. It was so impressive to be so close in particular to the beautiful Scarlet Macaws. Seeing Parrots in the wild just reinforces how vital it is to help protect them from the illegal parrot trade.
