Love Birds

At the bird enclosure in Saltwell Park today, I was standing thinking "how lovely" when I realised that a cockatiel was watching me, with it's beak holding the wire mesh.

All of a sudden I felt very sorry for it - it looked sad, as if it longed to be where I was so it could have a fly around in the open air. I don't think I'll go and look again.

At least these two were huddled up together like a pair of love birds.
