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.
Arabian Grosbeak
The Arabian Grosbeak is a near-threatened finch from the mountains of Oman and Yemen, weighing about 30 grams with a wingspan near 18 cm. Its heavy bill is adapted for cracking hard seeds and fruit stones in montane forest and dense scrub habitats. The restricted range of this stocky finch makes it vulnerable to habitat disturbance.
