Tropical Canopy - Scarlet Macaws by Robert Bateman

Tropical Canopy - Scarlet Macaws by Robert Bateman available from Prickly Pear Galleries.

 

"It is one thing to see, and especially hear, a scarlet macaw in a home or zoo. It is quite another thing to observe them in the wild. In another sense, the plumage of these birds is an aggressive commotion in color. But in the riotous chaos of a rainforest canopy, this cacophony of sound and color completely fits, in a kind of outstanding way. In this painting, I included striking epipytes to compete with the birds in the colorful and complex canopy settting." - Robert Bateman.
