RED-EARED PARROTFINCH Erythrura coloria Family Estrildidae Bird # 270 - October 2010 This is a bright green and red bird that is 4" long. It is described in the Kennedy guide as "shy and hard to see". A very apt description of this bird's behavior! It would hide in the bushes at the slightest sound or movement. It is usually found low, near the ground. This is one bird I had a particularly hard time seeing, even with Nicky's excellent guiding skills. He and Tonji were very relieved when I finally was able to see one. We were looking for the parrotfinch in this area.
