About These 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.
African Quailfinch
The African Quailfinch is a tiny estrildid finch weighing about 11 g with a wingspan near 10 cm. It inhabits open grassy wetlands and moist grasslands across Africa, running mouse-like through vegetation and flushing in low, fast flight when disturbed.
