Lovebird seems to be losing feathers?

I have two Lovebirds, male and female. They are around 8-months old and seem to be typical Lovebirds i.e. female bites etc). However my concern at the minute is that the male seems to have lost feathers on it's lower back above the tail, i'm not sure if they have been plucked or fallen out (or just me being paranoid) but you can see the skin thorugh the feathers.

I just wondered if this is a common problem and if anyone has any advice for me?

Thanks in advance
