Chestnut breasted mannikin The chestnut-breasted mannikin is a social bird that forms large flocks during the non-breeding season, sometimes associating with other species of finch es. They forage in groups, climbing the stems of grasses to pick seeds direct from the seed heads, rarely eating seeds that have fallen to the ground. Chestnut-breasted mannikins take up residence in grasslands, mangroves and reedbeds around water, building ovoid nests from grass, concealed low down amongst long grasses or reeds. Show more
