Scarlet, the Scarlet Macaw shows off her beautiful colours in this jigsaw puzzle. Thanks to Teresa Schnurr for this picture of Scarlet having a shower in the fern.
As always, you may have to scroll over to get the whole puzzle in your computer window. You can make this harder (or easier) by changing the size and shape of puzzle pieces.

Scarlet Macaws are one of the largest (36 inches) and most colourful parrots. At least half of the length is the long tail. The bright red, blue and yellow stands out and certainly draws attention to itself.
Although their habitat in the wild has greatly diminished over the years, they can still be found flying in the wild in Central and South America.
