About Dybowski’s Waxbill

Dybowski’s Waxbill (Euschistospiza dybowskii) Its name comes from French botanist Jean Dybowski. Unfortunately, not a lot is known about the bird in its native environment – they have been reported to spend a lot of time foraging on the ground on the edge of forests and areas of dense vegetation as well as along trails through grassland.
