Birds of East Africa
Fisher’s Love Bird
The love birds are in fact little parrots and are one of my favourite bird families. They are very colourful and vocal. A whole flock of them was nesting in the poles of the stand next to the swimming pool at school. I spent a few hours trying to photograph them but they never allowed me to get too close.
