Aren't they wonderful!! It's so easy to see how they get the name, isn't it.

A lovely picture of this duo - many thanks Stanley.
 
Lovely! And fascinating - birds and plant both! Also, the birds seem to be cuddling up to one another. Great expression on that near one |=)|
 
Marvellous capture and setting again. Absolutely love this image, Stan !!!
