I Document A Storybook Love Between My Pastel Parrotlets, And The Result Will Melt Your Heart

Meet Winter, Spring, River and Rain, our 4 Pacific Parrotlet birds. When we welcomed these colorful parrots into our family, I had no idea the impact they would have on me. At only 4-5″ tall, these beautiful birds pack the personality of their Amazon cousins into their little bodies.
The love the pairs share is as big as their attitudes. They cuddle, preen, and care for each other daily. Observing and interacting with my pet birds has brought so much joy and laughter into my life. I’m captivated by their beauty, their intelligence, and their sweetness. They’ve quickly become one of my favorite subjects to photograph. I love to tell a story and convey emotion through my beautiful photos and editing. With their mischievous antics and love for cuddling, the birds provide me with plenty to capture! Viewing them through a macro lens reveals so many details that might have otherwise gone unseen… The tiny eyelashes, their little tongues, the perfection of their pastel-colored feathers.
What I enjoy most about sharing the birds is hearing back from people that they’ve found them to be very inspiring photos that have brought a smile to their day or allowed them to briefly escape to a storybook place where fluffy birds find true love.

Ohh they are absolutely adorable!
Perhaps we humans can take away something very worthwhile from even our most distant relatives. ;D
Incidentally this article from yesterday is well worth reading if you are fascinated with the two pair above. "Some Songbirds Have Brains Specially Designed to Find Mates for Life" - https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/13/science/songbirds-brains-mates.html
@Lizzy Busch It's not only about bonding but also about mating and breeding. I dont think that you can imagine a sexually frustratd bird. For example, a Cockatoo will start to scream all day, attack you and others, then pluck its own feathers because - well, because you are not a cockatoo. Not a songbird, but a strong example of what I mean.
this one of the reasons pet parrots should only be kept if they are in bonded pairs
Thanks for the article
+earringnut I'm not quite sure I agree with you. I believe that if you have a close enough bond with your bird, and give them enough of your time and enough stimulation, I think they'll be fine.
they are so cute, i feel love in my stone cold little hart
