I captured a sweet moment between the twins on video yesterday morning.

What is most interesting is the last part of the video.
Luna is the bird in back and Merlin is closest to camera.

It looks to me like Luna is asking to be fed by Merlin. But she is not asking in the way a baby bird askes to be fed.
Merlin has been regurgitating to his toy but so far I have only seen him .

I have to go.

The birds in question wanted feeding.

Only seen him regurg one when near Luna and Luna turned away.

It’s only after I review the video I can determine identity of the birds.

This is cute, but are they related (actual twins)? If so, how old are they?
I'm worried about where this is headed.

Completely unrelated.
I just call them “the twins “ cuz they are hard to tell apart.

Luna is a rescue I have had since 2017 and Merlin I bought shortly after as a companion for Luna and to bring back my flock of Amazons to three.

So Luna’s age is unknown.She left her owner without passport or American Express card.
Merlin is going through puberty so he’s about 5 years old.

It’s just easier to say “ the twins “ when I talk about them in combination.

oh- that is good! I was thinking there was in-breeding on the horizon.
