Scaly-breasted Munia at Echo Park Lake this afternoon. These tiny estrildid finches were brought from Asia as pets, but escaped. Often seen in tall, seedy grasses, eating seeds.

Although Scaly Breasted Munia are native to Southern Asia, they were very popular as caged pets for a while, so although I hate to even think of those beautiful creatures living in a cage, I do like that enough of them escaped to make their presence known in many parts of the world.

Scaly-breasted Munia, an escaped pet shop breed, were called Nutmeg Mannikins by their jailers. #munia #ScalyBreastedMunia #photography #birds #birders #BirdWatching #BirdWatchers #California #LosAngeles #BirdPhoto #GriffithPark #DailyBird #BirdsOfPixelfed #BirdADay #DailyBird #BirdOfTheDay #LARiver #LosAngelesRiver #BirdsOfMastodon #cute #NaturePhotos #LAWildlife
