Gruesome Twosome
A pair of Rose-ringed Parakeets, which had taken up residence near our apartment whilst in Tenerife recently. The Rose-ringed Parakeet feeds on fruits, seeds and varied flowers. It peels the seeds, softly removing the shell around the smooth parts. The male seen on the left has the collar which gives the birds their name whilst the female on the right does not have this. The hooked bill is bright pink, giving the bird a comical look quite relational with its player and mischievous spirit.
