CommentThese pair of Zebra Finches not only identify as a pair by their plumage but by their behaviour as well. I know you should not anthropomorphize , but they certainly look like a pair of "dreamy-eyed lovebirds". I chose this image as it is clear of any distractions in the background,the birds are sharply focused and the out of focus background all give the image a pleasing quality.
