This is the most attractive of all finches. The Rainbow Finch, also known as the Gouldian Finch (Erythrura gouldiae), has a brilliant colorful plumage.
The male and female are both marked with blue, purple, yellow, red, black, and green feathers.
Their heads can be either yellow, red, or black.
The males, like many other bird species, have brighter colors.
These tiny finches are native to Australia’s grasslands, but they were also introduced into Europe.
The finches are friendly and like to socialize with each other. They, however, are apprehensive of humans and will not tolerate being handled.
The Gouldian finches eat insects, grass, and seeds.
