About These Birds
Black-faced Canary
The Black-faced Canary is a small, bright finch with vivid green and yellow plumage and a distinctive black face and throat patch on the male. It inhabits open woodland, forest edges, and gardens of central Africa, from the Democratic Republic of Congo through Uganda and Kenya. It feeds primarily on small seeds and berries, often gathering in flocks that move through the canopy.
Picogordo
El picogordo es un pinzón de gran tamaño con un pico enorme y poderoso adaptado para partir semillas duras. Tiene plumaje marrón-anaranjado con alas negras y blancas. Mide unos 16-18 cm. Habita en bosques caducifolios y mixtos de Europa, Asia central y este asiático. Se alimenta principalmente de semillas de cerezo, acebo y olivo, que puede partir con su robusto pico. Especie tímida y difícil de observar a pesar de su gran tamaño entre los pinzones.
