Diamond Firetail Bird Taking a Bath In Spotted Water In Grass Field

Diamond Firetails are part of the finch family and look like they have been colored in by a 7-year-old. Their bright scarlet tail feathers and white spotty sides make them very distinctive and easy to recognize.

In a rare departure from most female birds, female Firetails are not the usual dull brown – they have the same coloring as the males.
