The popularity of Australian Grassfinches worldwide is largely due to the hardiness of these tiny, gregarious and colourful birds. The 18 members of the Grassfinch family Estrildae recognised in Australia are featured in detail. General topics covered include acquiring birds, quarantine, nutrition, housing, breeding seasons, sub-species, coloured mutations and health problems - to name a few. Diagrams indicating visual differences and some 160 coloured photographs support the text.
