Just the one photo this week, of a recent encounter at the island’s Costco. These Rosy-faced Lovebirds and others were snacking in the parking lot. I’m not sure whether someone threw this there or accidentally dropped a bag of seed or something similar. Either way, this was the only photo I got because every time I was ready to take another one, a car would come by and the birds would scatter!

Take your pet to the vet. If it doesn’t go well, go next door afterwards and be reunited!

A Rosy-faced Lovebird perched on a branch, and afterwards, like this post, outta here!
I saw these two Rosy-faced Lovebirds in a tree at work and wondered, is this why they’re called lovebirds?
This week’s Sunday Stills Monthly Color Challenge is ‘White and Pastels.’ See more responses here.
Rosy-faced Lovebirds are also known as Peach-faced Lovebirds and they have a lot of color variations. I have yet to see a rosy face in Hawaii outside of tourists who’ve seen too much sun. Instead, the local birds tend towards pastel shades whether they’re dining or simply hanging out.
A few days ago, several Rosy-faced Lovebirds showed up at work. They were very loud and the regular bird residents were not pleased by their appearance. These two kept returning to our windsock and I figured even birds need to know which way the wind is blowing.
