I would be worried that your macaw could damage the battery or break the screen. Both would be very bad. I keep my devices well away from my parrot because...

...Three days after I bought my first Nook Simple Touch, I set it down, foolishly screen side up, on my desk. I was bird-sitting my brother's parrot at the time. The parrot flew across the room and landed on the shelf over the desk, and knocked off a small item which hit the screen -- because of course it would, breaking it. The NST was still on sale so I bought a replacement the next day and a cover, the "official" B&N cover because there were no others. Lesson learned. I will always have a cover or case for all my devices with screens. Nothing is placed screen side up... oh, and nothing is left out for the parrots to find and *explore* If they see their people using something, they become curious about it and will investigate. Wonderful pets, but very high maintenance.
