Those are beautiful. One of my favorites.... I have thought once I am satisfied with some of the species I am studying now and move on to study others I would like to give these a try. I will be watching to see how they do for you. How exciting. Again...Beautiful

Liz, they are beauties! I love the Firefinches. I have the Red Billed FF. Mine are very skittish, also. Good luck with them, the color and pictures are wonderful.

They are very nice Liz. I love those birds. I ALMOST got a pair and actually had them in my cage, but decided on the Jameson instead.

Beautiful birds!!!!

Liz I knew you were going to give in. They look great! They are a bit skiddish but they calm down a little in no time.

Very nice Liz!! I got to see these in person, very beautiful birds. I wasn't sure in Donna's post if you were talking about the new gouldians you got recently or you really did get a new pair ;)

Congrat's and best wishes with them!

So that's what was meant in your signature line "always room for one more".

They are beautiful.

Thank you all very much! These actually were at the birdshow I was at in the beginning of November. They were shown and took first place (but since they were the only ones of their type - it was a bit too easy).

Oh sure - I actually mean "always room for one more PAIR or BABY or whatever!"

I love these Fires - they are so pretty! I've been having luck with my Fires and thinking to get this species too.

Beautiful birds, Liz--I also have a soft spot for the Fires, they are special.

Thank you FD and Meagan! I love the muted grey/red combination!

I've decided to name them: France and Paris!

He looks like he could be from France and Paris... just fits!
