Star Finch

Original - Star Finch (Neochmia ruficauda), Walk-in Aviary, Canberra, Australian National Territory, Australia

Reason

Not taken in natural habitat, but the aviary was a large, walk-in type, so there isn't anything in the picture which suggests that. Apparently quite a common aviary bird.
