| This
bird is also known as the Green Winged Pytilia. It is said
that the male has a very melodious song. While a calm resident
in the aviary, they are best kept as a single pair because breeding
time can cause aggressiveness among two males competing for the same
hen. While the male is strikingly colorful, the female lacks the bright plumage that this species is noted for. |
