Love birds are one bird of nine species of Agapornis genus (from the Greek "agape" meaning "love" and "ornis" meaning "bird"). They are small birds, ranging from 13 to 17 cm, weighing 40 to 60 grams, and are social. Eight of these species are from Africa, while the species of "gray head love bird" originated from Madagascar. Their name comes from the commonly observed behavior that a pair of love birds will sit close together and love each other. The nature of the couple of love birds is monogamy in the wild. Their average lifespan is 10 to 15 years.
