Original - The Red-browed Finch (Neochmia temporalis) is an estrildid finch that inhabits the east coast of Australia. This species is also been introduced to French Polynesia for breeding. It is commonly found in temperate forest and dry savanna habitats, but may also be found in dry forest and mangrove habitats in tropical regions.
Reason
Previously nominated, but it didn't get the attention it deserved. Charismatic and high quality shot used well within its article. Already a FP on Commons. Note that I have copied the caption almost word-for-word from the article lead.
