What fabulous images @kamimorrow I absolutely love macaws and one of my first blogs is about macaws. (I'm very new to Steemit) It is entitled "Establishing the Pecking Order" if you'd like to read it. I hope to see more of your beautiful birds as they grow and develop.

Thanks how fun... I will

Aren't they conure?

These big guys are Macaws, they do look very similar, especially when they are featherless like this ☺

It is so awesome to think that baby birds are not that cute but transforms to really gorgeous looking adult birds...

That's so true...
