Every living thing that is red in color is red because of Carrotine that is in their food, including a person's red hair. The only exception to that rule in the entire universe is the macaws. They make the red coloring it a way that is so unique, scientists studying this don't think they came from the same planet; their DNA is so different even from other birds. We know that God just chose to do things differently on the fifth day of creation. They have a lot of secrets like how they can live for 120 years and we can't. I will choose to study and admire my big red bird and share info like this with others as I take Clifford to the beach.

Clifford is gorgeous!!! Beautiful picture!
His colors are outstanding. I has never heard thst about the red color so that is interesting

But on the whole DNA thing, they are closely related to African Grey parrots

Outstanding Photo!

Interesting information about the develop of the color Red. The more that Science learns, the more we find we do not either know or understand! The wonders of life and how it all works!

Kind of like the weather. The more we know, the more difficult it becomes to provide an accurate statement of what will happen next week, yet a lone, what will happen tomorrow.
