Spotted Munia Finch
Scientific Name: Lonchura punctulata
CommonName: Spotted munia Finch
Origin: Southeast Asia
Dimensions: 3.5" Wooden Base x 4.5" high in a glass dome
A Spotted munia or scaly-breasted munia skeleon.. It is extremely lightweight but strong enough to withstand the stresses of taking off, flying, and landing. Because of this, birds usually have a smaller number of bones than other terrestrial vertebrates. Birds also lack teeth or even a true jaw, and instead have a beak, which is far more lightweight. Its name is based on the distinct scale-like feather markings on the breast and belly. This munia eats mainly grass seeds apart from berries and small insects. They forage in flocks and communicate with soft calls and whistles. The species is highly social and may sometimes roost with other species of munias. Breeding pairs construct dome-shaped nests using grass or bamboo leaves.
