From a small town to a big city...

Hello all! On Dec. 1st my Mom said that there was 11 ROSY-FACED LOVEBIRDS in our neighbor's tree! I rushed outside immediately with my binos and got to work counting them. The flock, as far as I could see had 13 birds! I got really excited and frantically ran to get my camera. Before I could even focus properly, my camera died, so Mom told me to get the other one. I quickly took shots of the lovebirds in every part of the tree and especially when they grouped together. They were particularly cooperative and close. At one point 2 even flew into one of our own trees and I snapshotted them! After that, all the Lovebirds from the tree next door burst into the sky with a loud fluttering noise! I estimated right then that there was 20 of them! Then, a pair flew over our house, relatively low, and finally, 2 more came in and landed into the big tree! So in the end, the flock, plus the pair in our tree, the pair that flew over, and the pair that came last to land in the big tree, totaled 26 birds! (Roughly).
