About These Birds
African Firefinch
The African Firefinch weighs about 10g and is widespread across sub-Saharan grasslands. Males have rich red plumage with white flank spots, making them among the most colorful small African birds.
Black-faced Munia
The Black-faced Munia is a small, compact grassfinch with a black face, brown upperparts, and pale buff underparts; the black facial coloring contrasts sharply with its pale bill. It is found in open grasslands, rice paddies, and scrublands of the Moluccas and Sulawesi in Indonesia. It feeds almost exclusively on grass seeds and rice, often in large foraging flocks.
