BLUE-FACED PARROTFINCH
Erythrura trichroa
Alternate Names: Blue-headed Parrotfinch, Tri-coloured Parrotfinch
The blue facemask of the male Blue-faced Parrotfinch extends much further back on the head than the female. The colour is a much darker blue than the hen. The green body colour is a darker green on the male and the red on the rump is a brighter red than on the female. He is usually a bit bigger than the female but at times a well-bred hen can easily be as big. |
