Description
The greenfinch is a small songbird bird in the finch family that is widespread throughout Europe, North Africa, and Southwest Asia. The greenfinch is a resident species, although some northernmost populations do migrate south. These finches have also been introduced into Australia, New Zealand, Uruguay, and Argentina. In Malta, it is considered a prestigious songbird, where it has been trapped for many years. It has been domesticated, and many Maltese people breed them.
Breeding greenfinches prefer woodland edges, farmland hedges and gardens with relatively thick vegetation. Outside the breeding season, these birds form large flocks, sometimes mixing with other finches and buntings. Their diet primarily consists of seeds but will also take berries. The greenfinch presented in this picture is perched in a blooming bougainvillea tree. This is a hand-painted digital image and photo composite created in Spadecaller’s Florida Studio on 12/29/2020.
