Lovebirds In The Wild

Check out the great work from these photographers, it's not very often we get a chance to see these little parrots in the wild and their natural habitat, thought you might appreciate this.

Hahaha, that's great, Lutino, thanks for posting it! The 1st pic on the right, on the wild page, answers a question I've had for awhile. See the lovebird with just his head peeking out of the tree? Lol. I've often wondered if they burrow in the ground or hollow out tunnels in trees, in the wild. Cause Nosey loves digging around & crawling into tight spaces. She always crawls between the chair/couch cushion & the side of the chair/couch. She likes running around under the comforter on my bed & making little tunnels & caves with it, lol. And she likes crawling in my pants legs, lol. But, then again, she could just be weird, LOL! Thanks again!

~Kristy... does anyone elses' lovebirds like crawling around in stuff like weirdos?

Awesome photos!

I love this video on YouTube of someone hand-feeding a whole flock of baby chicks in their living room!
