Answer:

c long-standing, African

Step-by-step explanation:

Adjectives name attributes and describe or modify nouns. In the given sentence, the adjective long-standing modifies the noun love, and the adjective African modifies the noun birds.

The rest of the alternatives are incorrect because has is a verb, for is a preposition and American functions a noun - meaning American people.
