Natural History Wanderings

Rosy-faced lovebirds live  in a saguaro cactus, in homes carved out by woodpeckers  These birds, (normally found in southwest Africa) are the descendants of escaped pets in the 80’s, now a thriving community wild and free in Arizona. They come from Namibia so apparently are pre-adapted to the Sonoran Desert. Check out this video of them at pic.twitter.com/HaWm5rDv0a
