Found a website with some nice photos of some finches which are rare or not in Australia.

It's really nice to see these birds in the wild. I liked them all since the only one I can get here is the cut-throat but I think my favourite was the quail finch. There are even more extensive collections at http://ibc.lynxeds.com/family/waxbills- ... strildidae or following the links at http://avibase.bsc-eoc.org/links/links.jsp?page=g_1. Again be careful of the drool!

what you need to do is to move all the stuff out of your house, put wire over your winodows.... then sell your stuff, buy even more birds so they can free range in the house and then you can live in the avairy out the back. ;)
