     His name not only fits his coloration, but also his 'fiery' personality. Salsa is an extremely proud parrot. If living in the wild, there is no doubt that he would be the head of his flock.

     He loves to sing opera and whistle the Addams Family theme to other parrots. This species of macaws are the lords of their environment. They fly in and chase every other large bird away. As a result, Salsa tends to be a “bully” to the other birds. Don't confuse this unique species with the Scarlet Macaw (See Eco)
    
While all of our highly intelligent Macaws enjoy their careers as actors, Salsa seems unique in that he really enjoys large crowds. His favorite audiences are ones numbering in the hundreds
