Damara Alario's Serin

A subspecies of the Alario Canary
Latin name: Serinus alario leucolaema

 

Description:


Habitat: The Alario Canary is found in Namibia, Botswana and South Africa. The photo speaks for itself! The female is paler but has the same brownish-grey mask. The first time I had the chance to observe this magnificent finch in captivity was a few years ago during a visit to the I.C.C. Germany (International Cardueliden Club) exhibition
The Damara Alario Canary is kept in a cage measuring 1.20 m × 0.50 m × 0.50 m. It is rarer in captivity.
