Grey-headed Lovebird

The Grey-headed Lovebird is one of the smallest species of the lovebird genus, being 13 cm long and weighing about 30–36 grams. Its beak and feet are pale grey. The species is sexually dimorphic: the adult female is entirely green, with a dark green back and wings, a bright green rump, and a paler green chest; the adult male are similarly colored, except that their entire head and upper chest are a pale grey.

The Grey-headed Lovebird is classified as Least Concern. Does not qualify for a more at risk category. Widespread and abundant taxa are included in this category.

The Madagascar or Grey-headed Lovebird was named agapornis canus canus by Gmelin in 1788, although the first record (painting) of the bird occurred in 1760 in M. J. Brisson's Ornithologica 1.
