There are at least 3 pair of B&G Macaws that frequent the Doc Thomas House in South Miami. They are "rush hour" birds, passing by and occasionally stopping in our canopy during morning (7 am to 9 am) and late afternoon (4 pm to 6 pm). I do not always see all 6, sometimes it's just a pair. Lately, they have been by at least a couple times a week.

: : I wonder if that same pair of blue-and-gold macaws is especially mobile, or if there is a large number of them in the Miami area. I saw a blue-and-gold last Sunday in the top of a royal palm at the Coral Reef Yacht Club, just north of Monte's on Bayshore. (I also caught and released a big sailfish on light tackle . . . altogether, not a bad day.)
