Parrots in the Palms at our Park

Rosy-faced Lovebirds

Length: 6.7 – 7.1 in. 

The Rosy-faced Lovebird (Agapornis roseicollis) is a small, colorful parrot which is a popular cage bird in the U.S. and elsewhere. Since at least the mid-1980s, feral flocks of this species have been reported breeding in residential neighborhoods of the greater Phoenix area.

We have seen these parrots over the years in Apache Junction and they seem to like being on palms. We only see them at this time of year.

Interesting cactus bloom we saw walking through Citrus Gardens today. 

It's like a ruby bracelet?!
