The one on the left is a male red munia also known as strawberry finch and the right one is a female. Nice that you could get both in a single frame. Thanks for sharing.

Cute couple. Very colorful species. Wish they were a bit closer. Its good you included the habitat as cropping further would have induced noise and reduced the quality. Thanks for sharing.

Such lovely birds. I wonder if todays generation growing up in cities will ever get a chance to see them in flesh and blood. What was the ISO? A higher shutter speed would have been good. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
