I was told recently that parrots belonged to the macaw family. Is this right? as I am sure it is not (although I may be wrong hence the post!!).
This guy i was talking to has a hans macaw; (however you spell it) but was really small and i thought it was a poinus.
He said that all parrots that had skin around their eyes as opposed to feathers were in the macaw family but i didn't think AG's were ... and they have skin round their eyes.
Can anyone verify?

Parrots, including Macaws and African Greys are all in the Psittacidae family.
