TheWoWDBI know it's self-explanatory...but I still spent 5 minutes trying to target the Macaws that normally fly around location. That is dumb...don't be like me.
There are actually birds named "Runaway Macaw" that fly throughout the Pirate town. You do not need to target them, just throw the cracker within 30 yards of one. Simple once I figured it out.

Quest is broken for me. No matter how many Runaway Macaws I throw biscuits to, I don't get credit and remain at 0/6. The biscuits are properly flying towards the birds and the birds are getting the heart above their heads and flying home but yeah, no credit.
