Severe Macaw

Severe Macaw

The Chestnut-fronted Macaw or Severe Macaw (Ara severa) is one of the largest of the mini-macaws. It reaches a size of around 45 centimetres (18 inches) of which around half is the length of the tail. This is the only mini-macaw to have feathers on the bare patches on its face which makes it look like the larger types of macaw.

The Severe Macaw is mostly green in colour with patches of red and blue on the wings. The head has a Chestnut brown patch just above the beak. The beak is black and the patches around the eyes are white with lines of small black feathers.

They can be found over a large part of Northern South America from Panama south into Brazil.

Their lifespan is listed as anything from 30 to 80 years of age.

Like most other Parrots Severe Macaws can be "nippy" or "beaky". This should not be encouraged. They can learn to speak and can readily learn a reasonable vocabulary.
