"Romeo & Juliet."
Romeo and Juliet live in the neighbourhood. These two love birds come visiting every now and then. They sit and enjoy the sea view from my balcony, have a chat, fly around and generally give me the impression that all is well with the pair of them. They confirmed these impressions on their last visit when Romeo made his intentions very clear.
The afternoon started off as it usually does, with Romeo and Juliet taking in the views and flitting from one part of the balcony to the other.
And then all was quiet for a while as they decided to have a snooze.
When Romeo woke up he edged his way closer to Juliet and told her how beautiful she looked.
It was obvious to all casual observers (such as myself) that he was in the mood for romance and as Juliet didn't rebuff him, he decided he'd do a bit of preening in the hope that he would get a similar compliment from his feathered lover.
Juliet waited patiently whilst Romeo spruced himself up.
Then Romeo went back to Juliet and proceeded to flatter her outrageously.
She tried to push him away but I could tell she was just toying with him, (as female lorikeet's are inclined to do.)
She then pretended to be shy and buried her head in her chest feathers........with one eye on Romeo to make sure he was still admiring her.
She shouldn't have worried, because Romeo was going nowhere! Neither was Juliet.
And before I could say, "Get a Room!" Romeo and Juliet were in a world of their own; lost in a frenzy of feathers............and the rest is history.
THANK YOU FOR VIEWING. HAVE A GREAT DAY.
