Macaws are social birds and they enjoy interacting with each other, and they often engage in social grooming, where they preen each other's feathers. Macaws also like to play, and they have been observed engaging in a variety of activities such as throwing nuts at each other and playing hide-and-seek.
Macaws are monogamous birds and they mate for life. They usually lay two to four eggs at a time and both parents incubate the eggs. The eggs hatch after about 28 days and the chicks are fed by both parents. The chicks fledge from the nest after about 100 days.
Macaws are important seed dispersers and play an important role in maintaining the health of forests. They are also a popular tourist attraction and are often kept in zoos and aviaries.
