Beautiful new birds

We just received a pair of Painted Firetail Finches and Owl Finches. We have them in a large flight cage. The Owl Finches are a little harder to photograph in a large cage but maybe once they settle down more it will be easier. Here are some photographs of the Painted finches. They are beautiful birds.

Well I am so envious :shock:

I have been waiting over four months to obtain a few pairs of Painted Firetails but they cost around $700 per pair here so I have been biding my time hoping to snag them at a slightly lower price.

And what a superb camera you have too.

Wonderful new birds. They are spectacular!
They are easy enough to breed too and make interesting nests. Enjoy them.
