City Parrots

Nape keeps his eye on everything in the vicinity of the nest.

Egyptian goose (Alopochen aegyptiacus) breed in similar trees as the macaws. Things are not friendly when a goose approaches the nest or flies by. The macaws will vocalise loadly. They even come out the nest, take place in a nearby tree and raise their wings to look big. The geese lose interest in the end and look elswhere for a suitable appartement.

The macaws fourage in a nearby Oak tree (Quercus)

Flying around together seems to be a healthy break for both macaws. Their breeding routine seems so be somewhat like this:

Breeding most of the day - Toos is more at the nest than Nape
Flying around for 15 minutes - A couple of times a day
Fourage nearby the nest - After flying around together
Preening together
Breeding again
