Macaw Symbolism And Meaning

Macaws are the largest members of the parrot family and are famous for a number of unique and impressive traits. For one thing, Macaws evolved in colorful rainforest environments and, as such, are plumed in bright and vibrant colors. These birds are also very well known for their vocal abilities. Alongside the range of calls and songs that Macaws perform, these birds are adept at mimicry and can be taught to repeat a wide range of human speech and other sounds. For these reasons, Macaws represent creativity, intelligence, communication, expression, and vivaciousness"  -worldbirds
