These surprising birds are unsurprisingly referred to as strawberry finches. These are small sparrow-sized birds of the family Estrildidae. They can be easily recognized because of their scarlet body which is covered with white spots. These species are somewhat aggressive to birds of the same color and species. They are also really defensive of their nests. However, other than that, they are peaceful and lively.
