Capuchino Castaño

El capuchino ventricastaño es un pequeño pinzón estríldido robusto con plumaje marrón rojizo intenso, cabeza negra y vientre blanco, que habita praderas, arrozales y bordes de bosques abiertos desde India y Sri Lanka hacia el este a través del Sudeste Asiático hasta Filipinas y Taiwán. Muy gregario, forma grandes bandadas y a veces se considera una plaga agrícola menor en los cultivos de arroz. Ampliamente mantenido como ave de aviario en toda Asia, son relativamente fáciles de criar y mantener en cautiverio.
