This little guy came to my doorway looking for food. I think he's from the parrot family. He is about 6 inches long. After the fires around here in Palm Bay, we have seen quite a few new birds looking for food. I put a block of finch food outside on an old birdcage and he is eating. I would like to know what kind of bird he is.

I got an answer from a poster on DavesGarden. It's a
Black-masked Lovebird.

I think I have two of them visiting. One who comes to the front of the house for some food and water is smaller. The larger one flew inside my screen enclosure. He is now feeding and drinking water. He flies to my hoya plants that are hanging under the roof of patio. I wonder if he will fly into a birdcage. They must have been someones pets.
