The Gouldian Finch Erythrura gouldiae is one of Australia’s most critically endangered birds. This is a female.

A National Recovery Plan has been drafted which provides a framework for the recovery of the species in their natural habitat. These birds are part of a flock that is involved in a captive breeding program to ensure a certain level of security for the species.
