The Parrot Finch (genus: Erythrura) are small, very colorful finches that occur naturally from South-east Asia to New Guinea, northern Australia and numerous Pacific Islands. This finch loves water, as evident in this picture -- they enjoy jumping in and out of it. Bathing will take place a couple of times a day, summer or winter - and are an important part of their daily grooming. Photo was taken at Butterfly World in Coconut Creek Florida.
