Kingfisher, Munia, Babbler

erwinx · 15th June 2004

The common name of the Munia is based on Robson. Doing a search on the latin name lonchura ferruginosa, I found that this bird has multiple common names, eg: Black-throated Munia, White-capped Munia.

Erwin: is it me or the highlight is a bit blown here? Or rather harsh light.

yeah... the 2nd one is the sky color that dull? Think 3rd a bit higher contrast might help.
