Tricoloured munia

Tricolored munia just after taking a dip in the water, as you can see from the tiny droplets on the feather of the bird. A small cute bird of roughly 12 cm in length. They feed on grains like grass seeds, rice, millet. They feed from the ground or use their claws to climb the grass blades and feed from the seed heads. Seen around swamps, marshes, grass land, rice fields. These birds lives together in small / large flocks. It is sometimes observed to use the nest of streaked weaver.
