Spix‘s macaw, rarest
parrot in the world; still in
the mix, not out yet.
This gorgeous bird is the Spix‘s macaw, native to Brazil. They were classified as extinct in the wild in 2019, but they have been successfully bred in captivity. A program was started in 2022, releasing some back into the wild. Let‘s hope they thrive once again!

Something happens near the end of this book that I think is highly unbelievable; however, I still liked this story of second chances. I loved the characters and the parrots. Night #audiowalk today.

I‘ve got about 2 hours left in this book. Troy is a hateful one. It was quite chilly this morning. I even had to wear a jacket! #audiowalk
“The recovery of the Puerto Rican parrot is a tribute to the passionate and hard-working staff members in the two aviaries.“
Parrots Over Puerto Rico is an excellent classroom resource for teaching science, social studies, and environmental awareness. It invites discussions about conservation, ecosystems, and human impact on nature. Teachers can use it to build reading comprehension, connect literacy with STEM topics, and inspire students to care for wildlife and protect endangered species.
Parrots Over Puerto Rico by Susan L. Roth and Cindy Trumbore uses poetic language and striking collage art to tell the story of the endangered Puerto Rican parrots. The information is presented clearly, blending science and history in a way that‘s engaging for children. The vivid language and visual style capture attention while making complex ideas accessible and memorable.
