Blue-faced Parrotfinch
4 sections
The Blue-faced Parrotfinch is a small, colourful finch found from Southeast Asia through New Guinea to Australia’s Cape York Peninsula. In Australia, it is locally common in grassy forest clearings and edge habitats of far north Queensland, especially in foothill and montane areas during the breeding season, descending to coastal lowlands in the non-breeding period.
