Well, I never did get to see them (they were sold), but from what I was able to gather they were the ones Cindy found. Anyway, my husband went to see the guy tonight and he picked up 6 masked grass finches for me. What little beauties!
Jacqui
4 chatty Zebras, 4 Societies,
2 Owl boys and 2 Red Cheeked Cordon Bleus (on some eggs)
and 6 Masked Grass Finches ... so far!
