black cheek waxbill

Post by lerera » Sat Aug 21, 2010 7:38 pm

Hi every one, I was looking for a picture of Black Cheek Waxbill female, until now I only saw male's pictures on the internet. does anybody have a pair of them so he can put a picture of the couple.
If anyone else can write about the differences than it might be useful as well...
Thanks for the help.

next add are some pictures ( scroll down ), and yes there's a slight difference ... males have black feathers between the legs and on the
underside of the tail .... females tend to have more brownish feathers on those spots
