when I was six, pictorellas were my all time dream bird.
then I got some, not hugely impressed but great birds.
wish the hen had lasted the breeding season.

I love the way the D/bars hoot a warning when someone goes near the aviary ...plus they are such a social finch they can be seen to communicate with each other.
