Amadina

Amadina is a genus of birds that belongs to the family of estrildid finches, which are small, colorful and seed-eating birds.
There are only two species in this genus: the red-headed finch and the cut-throat finch.
Both species are native to Africa and have distinctive markings on their heads and throats.
The red-headed finch has a bright red head and chest, while the cut-throat finch has a red band across its throat.
Amadina finches are social birds that often form flocks with other species and feed on the ground.
They also use nests built by other birds to lay their eggs.
Amadina is not related to Amandină, which is a Romanian cake.
