Looking for the Tricolored Munia


Today i was back on the Caño Tiburones. In search of the Tricolored Munia (Lonchura malacca). A Finch that for a long time have not been seen in Puerto Rico, and we found a group last week, me and some friends. I had the luck to find them again today, and in the same place where we saw last week. I think they are nesting in the grassland because they did not move far from the area. Although I could see 8, i could not photograph them because they hide a lot and they are a bit sneaky. I will keep going this week to get a clear picture, but I photographed a female Orange Bishop.
