This collectible phone card features a prominent front design that showcases a striking image of a vibrant scarlet macaw, renowned for its brilliant red, blue, and green plumage. The detailed photograph highlights the rich colors and textures of the bird’s feathers, occupying the left half of the card. Its intense gaze and colorful body immediately draw the viewer’s attention, set against a softly blurred green background that suggests a natural habitat, reinforcing the endangered species theme.

Along the left edge, a vertical blue banner displays white text reading "ENDANGERED SPECIES SERIES," with the word "MACAW" in bold yellow letters, clearly indicating its place within a special wildlife conservation collection.
