ICR lovebirds


Brilliant colors, like these displayed in the feathers of many birds, serve no evolutionary purpose, provide no aid for survival. #GuideToAnimals#AmazingCreation
If I understand ICR's position, Fischer's Lovebirds are a part of a created kind full of different color arrangements. Even at the genus level, there are a variety of colors. However, creationists nowadays maintain that a kind is at the family level, which would mean that all parrots, with all their color variety, came from two parrots off of Noah's Ark. So if natural selection did not give rise to these colors from a parrot kind or a lovebird kind, what did?

Natural selection only works when traits provide "aid for survival". The caption says that the colors "provide no aid for survival", so I assumed that was not the mechanism.
