Чешуйчатая амадина

One of the most widespread estrildid finches in Asia, scaly-breasted munias are named for the fish-scale-like pattern of brown and white streaks on their breast. They inhabit grasslands, rice fields, and scrub from India east through Southeast Asia to the Philippines and Indonesia, and have established feral populations in many parts of the world including Hawaii, Florida, and Australia. Highly gregarious, they form flocks of hundreds feeding on grass seeds and rice grains.

Чернобрюхая муния

Also known as the black-headed munia, tricolored munias display striking chestnut, white, and black plumage. They inhabit grasslands, reed beds, and agricultural land across South and Southeast Asia from India to Indonesia. They are strongly associated with wetland and paddy field habitats, feeding on grass seeds and grain. Popular cage birds throughout their range, the species has been introduced beyond its natural range and established feral populations in several countries.
