Infra-red cameras were used in a nest of a Hyacinthine Macaw pair monitored by Neiva Guedes of the Projeto Arara Azul

Pedro Salviano Filho, publisher of Atualidades ornitologia, the Brazilian monthly newspaper for ornithologists and aviculturists, has kindly sent me the website address for a four minute video from a Brazilian TV programme capturing the use of infra-red cameras in a nest of a Hyacinthine Macaw pair monitored by Neiva Guedes of the Projeto Arara Azul. The nest had three eggs and I assume it was the nest from which triplets were hatched recently (see below - 31st March 2002). The video footage can be viewed for a while at the Globo TV website.
