This beautiful blue and gold parrot is very rare in Brazil. Besides their huge tongues, these birds are blessed with a longer life, living to be about 100 years old, according to Hanna.

Someone might want to get a hold of these folks and set the record straight?
You'd think they would be smart enough ... right?

Whooo that's a hoot...

Dani

that's too funny.... LOL

Idiots. Great Fact Checker department they have there.... wonder if anyone actually listened to the interview, I'm sure Jack said what the bird was.

Almost as good as the idiots that had a Ruby labeled as a Scarlet male breeder at the birdfair this weekend....ummmm no. I was so mad I had to just walk away.

LOL - well - it is a parrot - and it is blue with some gold/yellow coloring! I sent them an email and told them it would be nice for readers to know it was a Hyacinth Macaw.

LOL! That's a good one! WOW! whatever happened to researching before you published something?

Well, it IS a parrot, and it IS blue and gold...... :-).

That's right, Mikey is a blue and gold bird, can't you tell!

Too right JR, just love those blue and gold parrots in your avatar too!

To be fair, in Brazil they are called "Arara Azul" which means simply "Blue Macaw".

That is a good looking Blue and Gold, must have more blue genes than gold!
