Blue-headed macaw
Belgium.
Antwerp National Zoo
The blue-headed macaw or Coulon's macaw (Primolius couloni) is native to eastern Peru (except in north), north-western Bolivia (mainly in Pando), and far western Brazil (only in Acre). It has a total length of about 41 cm (16 in),[2] making it a member of the group of smaller macaws sometimes known as the mini-macaws, which includes any species of macaw with a total length of 50 cm (20 in) or less. As in all macaws, its tail is long and pointed and the bill is large and heavy.
The name "Coulon's macaw" is in honor of Swiss naturalist Paul Louis Coulon (1804-1894)
