Location found

The subject is a Harlequin Macaw, a captive-bred hybrid. The high-quality, close-up nature of the photograph strongly suggests a controlled environment like a world-class zoo or bird park, which could be located anywhere in the world. Loro Parque in Tenerife, Spain, is one of the most famous parrot collections globally, known for its extensive variety of macaws, including hybrids. Such a facility provides ideal conditions for this type of professional-quality wildlife portrait.

The bird is a Harlequin Macaw, a hybrid found in captivity. The parent species are native to South America. The Pantanal in Brazil is the world's largest tropical wetland and a major ecotourism destination for viewing macaws in the wild and at conservation-focused lodges ('fazendas'). Many of these locations have resident rescued birds, including hybrids, allowing for close-up photography in a natural-looking setting, which matches the image's background.
