The Arabian Waxbill is a small estrildid finch from the Arabian Peninsula and Horn of Africa, weighing about 8.5 grams with a wingspan near 9.5 cm. It has a reddish rump contrasting with its otherwise brown and grey plumage, typical of waxbill coloration. It forages for grass seeds in dry scrub and open habitats, often moving in small flocks.

The Beautiful Firetail is a small, colorful finch endemic to southeastern Australia and Tasmania, found in heath, scrub, and forest edges. It is recognized by its red bill and rump, finely barred black-and-white underparts, and blue eye ring. It feeds on grass seeds and small insects in dense shrubby habitats near the ground.
