About These Birds
European Goldfinch
The European goldfinch is a strikingly beautiful finch whose tinkling song and colorful plumage have made it popular in art and as a caged bird for centuries. It appears frequently in Renaissance paintings as a symbol of the Passion of Christ. Flocks of goldfinches are charmingly called a charm.
Black-headed Canary
The Black-headed Canary is a small, sexually dimorphic finch; males have a distinctive black head and bib contrasting with white cheeks and rufous upperparts, while females are brown-streaked. It inhabits arid scrublands, rocky hillsides, and dry riverbeds of southern Africa, particularly Namibia and South Africa. It feeds on small grass seeds and forages mostly on the ground or in low shrubs.
