April 5, 2023 - Southern Grosbeak-Canary (Crithagra buchanani) Found in parts of southern Kenya and northeastern Tanzania, these finches live in thorn-scrub, savanna, and scrubby grasslands. Foraging low in vegetation and on the ground alone or in pairs, they eat seeds, mostly from grasses and weeds, as well as some fruit. They build platform or saucer-shaped nests from fine roots, twigs, plant down, and spider silk.
