Chelsea Obscura, Connect (ANIMALS 2023)

While she lives in a Zoo, this Macaw was raised among humans and sought out human attention over the companionship of other Macaws. She refused to fly at all and much preferred to climb along the fencing seeking out the attention of the handler and the visitors. She is not held so much by the cage, but those connections she holds dear.
