About These Birds
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.
Black-bellied Seedcracker
The Black-bellied Seedcracker is a robust finch of West and Central African forests, notable for its polymorphic bill size, which appears adapted for cracking different sizes of hard seeds. Males have a red head and throat with black underparts, while females are brownish. It inhabits dense forest undergrowth and adjacent thickets, feeding on hard sedge seeds and other plant material.
