The Rosy-faced Lovebird is recorded throughout the year, so no month is the wrong month to look for it. For the parks where hosts record it most, these are the best seasons they give. Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park: Aug-Oct, flowers, Mar-May; Augrabies Falls National Park: Aug-Oct, flowers, Mar-May. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The Rosy-faced Lovebird (Agapornis roseicollis) is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.
