While walking around town, we saw quite a few Scarlet Macaws flying around, and also came across a Red-lored Parrot in the bushes outside someone's home. It was incredibly friendly, and though wild, seemed to be the 'pet' of those who lived there. It afforded us a great opportunity to shoot it up close.
