 Cute bird Peach-faced Lovebird

The Peach-faced Lovebird is a species of lovebird native to arid regions in southwestern Africa such as the Namib Desert. A loud and constant chirper, these birds are very social animals and often congregate in small groups in the wild. They eat throughout the day and take frequent baths. Coloration can vary widely among populations but females are generally darker and greener, whilst males are smaller and brighter. The Lovebird is renowned for its sleep position in which they sit side-by-side and turn their faces in towards each other. Also, females are well noted to tear raw materials into long strips, 'twisty-tie' them onto their backs, and fly distances back to make a nest.
