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-lored Waxbill
The Black-lored Waxbill is a data-deficient, tiny estrildid finch with brown plumage, pale underparts, a red rump, and small black lore patches. It has a very restricted range in the forests and dense thickets of the Democratic Republic of Congo, and very little is known of its ecology and behavior. It likely feeds on small grass seeds and insects in the manner typical of African waxbills.
