These three Macaws do shows as you can tell from the video. I am not so familiar with Macaw behavior "are they upset?"

I honestly see more horseplaying then anything, Some signs showed them telling one another to back off and the birds responded to the signals the other was giving. The beginning screaming was them tattling on the Milli, My guys do this when someone climbs down a stand or gets into something they instantly tattle on them by screaming like that. Pretty much like two kids saying he put his hand in the cookie jar.

I also noticed they are all flighted and for a show they more then likely know flight commands/ would fly away if anything got to rough. Unless they all where alpha's then that could get bad.

This is pretty much what I took out of it, I must advise though to anyone members viewing this. This kind of trust between bird to bird isn't easy and can easily become a hazard to birds and humans alike. One false play and they could choose fight over flight and breaking them up will more then likely hurt. I have broken a few macaw tussles up because of people letting their birds interact and not knowing exactly what each move meant, it hurts!

I do have a green winged macaw and a blue and gold that where raised from chicks together they are simply like brother and sister, the play is pretty rough( a lot of tail grabbing and punking around), but these two have/ will go into a severe depression if separated.

I believe Tony(plax) has two macaws that used to be bonded in a similar way and since have grown slightly apart, well rather one has grown apart from the other leaving the other slightly upset. I do hope I remember this right:s!

Wow Justin you really know macaws well. I am intimidated by them somewhat.

Im intimidated by them as well, they frighten me! Lol but goodness no! I could never have that kind of bird I'd go crazy with that noise lol

They sure do seem to be a force! I could probably handle the noise part..

So Macaw people you should start a "good and bad about macaws"

Sals is the biggest tattletale ever!

I do hope I remember this right:s!Yes, you remember correctly, Justin. The only thing you left out is that Maynard tries to kill Jack whenever he perceives a chance :(

O tony I know exactly how that feels with the tattling! haha, and yeah I did remember that part, but didn't add that in as I didn't want to say anything that may have been wrong and I may not have remembered as well as I had thought.
