About African Quailfinch


The African quailfinch, spectacled quailfinch, or white-chinned quailfinch, is a common species of estrildid finch found in eastern and southern Africa. Some taxonomists consider it to be conspecific with the black-faced quailfinch, others consider all three species to be conspecific.
