Black hooded red siskin, if like me you are a birdwatcher, birder, twitcher or just all round animal geek. This bird really is one to see they may be small at 10cm but they make up for it in colour and song.
Unfortunetly these birds are really hard to photograph because they are in a white cage , but i am going to come up with a way to photograph all the birds in a more natural way. You really do have to come down and see these in person though.
In the wild these are rare and in Venezuela and Northern Colombia where they originate from they are considered vunerable. Which means they are on the decline and on the way to extinct in the wild. In captivity there is a good number so not everything is lost.
