Lovebird

Lovebirds are compact parrots native to Africa and nearby islands. Pairs often sit close together and groom one another, but their social lives also include flock interactions and competition. Strong bills handle food and nesting material, with nest-building methods differing among species. Many use cavities for shelter and breeding. The affectionate common name describes familiar pair behavior rather than a guarantee that every bird will behave gently in every situation.
