Scaly-breasted Munia - Lonchura punctulata
Socializing munias :) the leftmost one. i think it was caught and sold as pets and it was even colored red, sometimes i saw yellow ones too. somehow it got free. and found a flock. surely it's natural color will come back. :)
This one am not so sure if its scaly breasted. but i think it's a juvenile. that's why the patterns not showing yet.
i sometimes get lucky to get closed with munias. specially when they are looking or eating grass seeds. they will allow me to shoot near.

Beautiful shots! Do you think the flock accepted the red bird?
Thou, it looks like its in a corner. I did saw the other munias seem to be ok with the artificially colored one :)
I am so happy the red one escaped and I hope it lives a long life in the wild! They are beautiful birds just the way they are!

Oh my god, are you saying that birds get colored ? 😱
Yes. Artificially colored by some enterprising people. So they can sell it. Sad but it happens.
😡 🤬 <-----I'm also A LOT colored now 😠
