The Green-winged Macaw is a large parrot species within the family Psittacidae. It is characterized by predominantly red plumage, green wing coverts, blue flight feathers, and a white facial patch with fine red feather lines. In the wild, Green-winged Macaws inhabit tropical rainforests, lowland forests, and river bank habitats across Central and South America. They nest primarily in large tree cavities.
At Parrot Stars, we prioritize education, welfare, and responsible parrot ownership to help ensure every bird finds and thrives in a forever home. Before taking home any parrot, we provide comprehensive guidance on proper caging and setup, positive reinforcement training, household safety, nutrition, and enrichment. Parrots in captivity are still wild animals with all their natural instincts. Your overall success and experience with any species of companion parrot is greatly impacted by positive reinforcement training. A parrot’s behavior reflects both the environment they live in and the training they receive.
All of our hand-fed babies are hatched and raised in our own breeding facility and weaned onto a diverse, high-variety diet. Our parrots are never clipped and are fully flighted.
