This summer someone was walking by the house and found one of these little guys walking in our yard. They assumed it was ours, caught it, and brought it to the door. We knew it wasn't our neighbors because earlier in the day, they were trying to catch him. When we asked them, if it was theirs, they said, "No, we are just trying to catch it." So we decided to keep him. We researched the bird and found that it was a lovebird. The internet suggested that they be kept in pairs, because they are very social. We found a local pet shop that had some just like our new little guy, and we brought home a female to keep our male company. All this happened during the Olympics, so we decided to name the kids Bei and Jing. We have made their home on our newly "remodeled" patio and they seem quite content. Not the pet I had in mind, and not the kids Osmel was hoping for either. When the guy brought the first one to the door he left with a "God bless you," and we decided, this is a little gift from God. The purpose is yet to be determined. They cutest part about them, is that they were cuddling from the first few minutes that they came home. They seemed to make an instant connection. Kind of reminds me of my husband and me- knowing from the beginning that we were meant to be together.
