In the warm savannas and open woodlands of East Africa, these sky-blue companions flit low through grasses with soft, musical chatter. They forage for tiny seeds and minute insects, often moving in close pairs, their synchronized hops hinting at strong social bonds. What makes them extraordinary is the rhythm they carry — males tap and dance during courtship, turning simple movements into a visual song while spreading seeds across the land. Delicate in form yet rich in behavior, gentle keepers of the grasslands.
