Tweet Take 5 : Macaws
An extended version of Tweet of the Day featuring three macaw species with Sir David Attenborough and Sir Michael Palin.
In this final episode in the series, a group of birds which are loud, colourful and in one case endangered take flight over the South American tree-tops. For this extended version of Tweet of the Day Sir David Attenborough presents the hyacinth macaw and, the now thought extinct in the wild but planned to be reintroduced in 2021, Spix's macaw while Sir Michael Palin reveals the story behind the well named scarlet macaw.
