Java Sparrow

A small bird at 15-17cm long, Java Sparrows live in flocks. Adults have distinct white cheeks, a black head, and a thick red bill. They have grey or fawn plumage and pink feet. They feed on rice fields in the wild and other seeds. You can visit these pretty birds in our aviary on the farm.
