The Red-Faced Parrot Finch (Erythrura Psittacea) - is native in New Caledonia - an island near Queensland coast (Australia). It can usually be found in grasslands or open country bordering forested areas.
The Red Faced Parrot Finch is my favourite bird. They are very popular aviary birds. There are few beautiful mutations.
I have a very strong affinity for them. They are a true delight to have in a mixed aviary or as a colony breeder.
They have a natural inquisitive nature, and seem to have the happy knack of recognizing the breeder immediately and greeting them at the aviary door.
This breed is totally vivacious, very energetic, and always on the move. They are very gentle, which makes them an ideal choice, for a mixed aviary.
This finch loves water -- they enjoy jumping in and out of it. Bathing will take place a couple of times a day, summer or winter - and are an important part of their daily grooming.

It's very important that the birds are not disturbed while they have young in nest or parents will abandon them. One of my 2009 males won the best young Parrot Finch at the DAS Bird show 2009.
