About These Birds
Black-headed Waxbill
The Black-headed Waxbill is a tiny, attractive estrildid finch with a black head, red rump, dark brown upperparts, and pale pinkish underparts. It inhabits forest edges, dense undergrowth, and thickets in montane and lowland forests of central and east Africa, from Nigeria east to Ethiopia and south to Tanzania. It feeds on small grass seeds and tiny insects, often in pairs or small family groups.
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.
