Q1. READ THE FOLLOWING PASSAGE CAREFULLY
LOVE BIRDS
Today budges often called lovebirds in India-are the most popular pet birds in the world. All the
-
adored cage birds of today are the descendants of parrots. They are one of the smallest of the world's
330 parrot species which have come down from a plucky little bird in rural Australia.
Some appear to be about 30 cm long from tall tip to crown, with bulbous, fluffy foreheads, barrel chests
and deep-set eyes. Their colours are striking: vivid shades of blue, grey and green as well as violet and
white. Most startling of all are the yolk-yellow birds, called Latinas that are like splashes of luminous
paint. The first colour mutations in captive birds were blue and yellow. Today, breeders raise birds with
rainbow of colours.
Love birds stay near water when it's dry, but when there's a lot of rain they spread out. They are
sometimes seen nestling on top of tall eucalyptus trees. While some of the caged varieties would have
difficulty flying across a room, wild budgies travel hundreds of kilometres at speeds of up to 50
kilometres per hour to seek seed and water. Even in prolonged droughts, the budgie has an
extraordinary ability to withstand dehydration. When deprived of water, budgies can reportedly exist
with little weight loss for more than a month at an average air temperature of 30 degrees. At 20
degrees, some can apparently survive indefinitely without water, provided they are getting some
moisture from food.
Male budgies can be excellent mimics and can develop huge vocabularies. Hens may whistle and can
learn a few words, but they are not nearly as loquacious as males, Budgies are dimorphic upon sexual
maturity. Adult males of most colours, except albino and the very pale pastels, develop a blue colour.
Hens have a lilac or tan colour that turns brownish upon maturity.​
