A graceful bird with a long tail, a vibrant crimson chest, and a brightly colored red face is known as the Crimson Finch. Approximately three weeks after leaving the nest, these finches undergo a transformation, changing their feathers into adult plumage.
These unique birds are exclusive to and can be found throughout northern Australia and some regions of southern New Guinea.
Crimson finches tend to thrive in habitats characterized by tall, dense grass. These locations are commonly found near wetlands, where there is an abundance of suitable trees for them to inhabit.
