I saw part of what I think was an 80s movie. It was about aliens who look like humans or can take on a human appearance. One alien woman had a cage of birds, and she ate one. The birds used for the scene appeared to be Blue-Masked Lovebirds. There was also a young human woman who was pregnant and found out that her boyfriend was one of the aliens. He claimed that he really loved her and wanted to raise their child together. If I remember correctly, she didn't believe him.

Answer: It definitely is "V," the original series from the 1980s. I remember these scenes vividly. Marc Singer was a TV cameraman who snuck on board the alien ship. He went into a ventilation duct and observed them in their quarters. He found the leader's room, Diana, talking with someone. They would move in and out of his view, each time taking a hamster from a cage, disappearing and returning to get another. Finally, he saw them swallow them whole. Later, it was birds. The young human was a teenage girl who made friends with a young alien boy. She was taken to their ship and observed. Diana ordered the boy to seduce the girl to learn about human sex. After the girl is released, she learns the aliens are reptilian and pregnant. In the sequel, "V: The Final Battle," the teenage girl gives birth to a hybrid girl. The resistance fighters capture the alien boy. The girl shows him their daughter. He says he loves her and wants to be a family, but the girl knows he's lying to save himself.

Thank you, I think it was "V."

Answer: Not sure about the birds (a long time ago), but 80s + Aliens + Alien Baby sounds a lot like "V."
