The Arizona Lovebirds
You know how I love the "lovebirds" who visit my yard all the time. Well this one was visiting the Desert Botanical Garden. Actually, I think there is another flock of them living around the garden. When I was there one of the mornings last weekend, I heard their distinctive chirping and I started looking around. That's when I spotted this beauty sitting on top of a saguaro cactus. It's certainly not a classic desert scene but, it seems these wonderful birds have made the area their home and we need to get used to seeing them in the desert environment.

Looks like they are made for each other ;-)
It's always good to see the lovebirds!
It would not take me long to get used to them! They are so cute.
Adorable! I wish some would come to our area for the summer.
It looks quite pleased with itself up there!
You did a great job with this photo shot against the sky. The facial features of the bird are sharp as a tack! Cute little bird. Reminds me of the thousands of little green parrots which have inundated south Florida. I think someone let a few loose and now they are everywhere. Noisy, too!
Beautiful capture, Sharon!
Adorable shot, Sharon!
Well, at least they're pretty. :)
He's very good at camouflage!
One of your best. Great color too.
Surely this is a site well worth seeing.
He blends right in with the colors of the cactus.
He/she looks mighty comfy atop that saguaro.
A new concept to get used to. The picture is beautiful!
What a lovely capture, Sharon!
