A recent visit to Irvine Regional Park, CA...mating season is in full bloom. Whispering sweet nothings.

These parrots were at one time someone's pets. Although a non-native species that found a home in the wild (albeit a city park) I rather enjoy them here rather than in a cage. They don't deserve a life sentence just because they are pretty. Thanks for the comments everyone the birds do appreciate it.

Yes, ChimpChamp, and they put on a good show. They are especially vocal around late afternoon. The Peacocks are very active too. I saw a female displaying (spreading her tail feathers) , I didn't know they did that, I thought it was only males. Good luck, I had a very enjoyable day.
