Hi there, first-time poster 👋
I really love identifying birds in my area. Today, I came across a pair of small birds who for the life of me, I cannot find a match for online. I thought they might be some sort of finch, but I am not sure.
Here are a few pictures(low quality, sorry), and two videos.
Link to the videos:
Both birds were hanging out in the long grass and nibbling on it. They have a tightly spotted underbelly and a dark-brown back, with a little, yellow-ish, fan-shaped tail. Very sleek looking birds! I couldn't hear them call.
I've never seen them before, so I thought they might be escapee pets. I have seen a zebra finch in the area, so there is a precedent. I appreciate any help I can get!
