Saffron finch juveniles Sep 10, 2017 in Bonaire. I think the one on the right may be a male since he was more yellow and the other a female but they are both juveniles so it is more difficult to say. They were always in trees near the dining area of our lodge. Caribbean Netherlands,Geotagged,Saffron Finch,Sicalis flaveola,Summer Click/tap to enlarge Promoted

The Saffron Finch

The Saffron Finch is a tanager from South America and is common in both open and semi-open areas in lowlands outside the Amazon Basin. They have a wide distribution in Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil and Argentina. Formerly, it was placed in the Emberizidae but it is close to the seedeaters.
