Just spoke to a local aviarist who has informed me that an entire aviary full of Double-barred Finches numbering 26 individuals escaped from her property in Gillen on the weekend. Given the conditions of the grasses around town I’d say there is a good chance we may soon have a resident population of these finches living alongside the Zebbies. Keep your eyes peeled.
