  1. Wow, never seen this bird before. Nice find! Posted 13 years ago
  2. Great shot Josine. My 85mm zoom is just a bit too short for that kind of photography. My bird subjects tend to fly away when I'm closing in:) Nice beaks there have, quite something. Same here, haven't seen them before. Posted 13 years ago

The Zebra Finch, ''Taeniopygia guttata'' , is the most common and familiar estrildid finch of Central Australia and ranges over most of the continent, avoiding only the cool moist south and the tropical far north. It also can be found natively in Indonesia and East Timor. The bird has been introduced to Puerto Rico, Portugal, Brazil and the United States
