About These Birds
Black-crowned Waxbill
The Black-crowned Waxbill is a small, delicate estrildid finch of Central African forest edges and adjacent savanna, with a black cap, grey body, red rump patch, and barred white flanks. It ranges from Cameroon east to Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, inhabiting grass and shrub edges of forest clearings and cultivation. It feeds on small grass seeds and tiny insects.
Black Mannikin
The Black Mannikin is a small, uniform dark-brown to blackish grassfinch with a pale gray bill and a slightly paler rump. It inhabits tall grasslands, reed beds, and adjacent scrubland in the lowlands of southern New Guinea. It feeds almost exclusively on small grass seeds, often foraging in small flocks near the ground.
