Spotted
Lear's Macaw is a large, rare macaw species with deep cobalt blue plumage, distinguished by a large, pale yellow patch of bare skin around its eyes and at the base of its lower mandible.
Where to spot
Restricted to a specific semi-arid region of northeastern Bahia, Brazil, characterized by sandstone cliffs and Syagrus palm groves.
How to spot
Visit known roosting and feeding sites in Bahia. Patience is required, and observing from a distance with binoculars is crucial to avoid disturbing these highly sensitive and endangered birds.
When to spot
Year-round. Best observed at dawn and dusk when they depart from or return to their cliff roosts.

Lear's Macaw primarily feeds on the nuts of the Syagrus coronata palm, an incredibly hard nut that only a few species can crack.
