Vocalization of Blue and Yellow Macaw

The Blue and Yellow Macaw is known for their extremely loud vocalization.  They have a shrieking call that sounds like "raaaw, raaaw, raaw."  They are often kept as pets because of their ability to be a talking bird.

  2. I am not sure and can not find a definite answer but I am pretty sure that a bunch of the large parrots and macaws are able to talk or mimic sounds, especially when kept as pets.
