Green Winged Macaw Cornell was hatched in West Hollywood and came to the Catamaran when he was 7 months old. He immediately acclimated himself to "on-camera" life at the hotel and quickly became a favorite with the guests.

Blue & Gold Macaw Mercer is a female Macaw who was hatched at the San Diego Zoo and came to live at the Catamaran when she was just 2 years old. Mercer is not a big talker, but if she happens to see someone she likes she will welcome them by bowing her head followed by a very excited "hello".
Umbrella Cockatoo Lovely Rita joined the Catamaran flock in the spring of 2016 and has been charming guests with her dramatic beauty and adorable voice ever since. Lively and playful, Rita especially enjoys her colorful toys.
