Parent-rearing the Scarlet Macaw |
September 8 1998:Tabasco 44 days (956 g), Cayenne 41 days (887 g)I heard noises coming from the nest box when the parents were not in the nest. This was not vocalization—the babies vocalize very little. This sounded like scratching. I think the babies are starting to exercise their wings inside the nest. However, they do not flap their wings when I try to get a glimpse of them.
