That is a stunning little bird WTM, I would love to see one in the park.
Is that the new name for them as my Sinclair Guide calls it a Melba Finch. :?

These photos were taken this past weekend (not in national park). It was incredibly hot and the birds were enjoying the garden sprayers…thus the “wet-look”
